I am doing OK here, just got in a rut! Thanks for your concern Lorell!
Don, hope all works out with the one day replacement!
The bird is really strange! Lorell is correct about the toupe, really looks like a bad one. I used to see them like that a lot but not so much anymore.
A beautiful capture, looks like he is posing for you. The simple BG and the rock perch makes for a fine shot. Composition is great!
Lorell, excellent capture, well seen and processed to give it an old look. I wonder how it would look in sepia or B&W? I do like this version for the spots of color though.
Hi Grant!
Dave, the rose is a beaut! The reds and all the colors are spot on! Have you calibrated your monitor? Awesome composition and presentation!
Went out to our lake this past weekend for the annual Elks Youth fishing derby. I don't walk on water (ice) anymore since many years ago when I was taking photos for a CC competition. I stepped in a fishing hole someone had drilled. Was not a fun adventure. The hole was covered up with a little snow.
The second shot far left shows the house we lived in when I was in grade school. The empty lot to the right is where my dog Duke, a black lab was buried. The lot was empty back then and we used it as a playground. It has had homes on it but the last home was torn down and nothing has been rebuilt for years.
These photos are taken from the warmth of my car with my 28-960 zoom.
