Re: PESO: Box Turtle

Box turtles are related to pond turtles, but live on land, rather than in the water. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Mon, Jul 11, 2022 at 2:13 PM Henk Terhell wrote: > Nice shots showing the details of the shell of this beautifu

Re: PESO: Box Turtle

Although box turtles are superficially similar to tortoises in terrestrial habits and overall appearance, they are actually members of the American pond turtle family. I love the green sea turtles that visit the Maui beaches. We have several pond turtles in the pond of our local park, and they als

Nice shots showing the details of the shell of this beautiful animal. I hope he will find the way back to the water. Henk Op ma 11 jul. 2022 om 18:24 schreef Daniel J. Matyola : > My dog spotted this fellow crossing our driveway yesterday, in the heat of > the day. > > http://dan-matyola.squares

Added an exposure adjustment layer to make the whole scene brighter and masked it with black, then painted in with white on the mask to reveal the brighter image on just the headstones. Had to burn in the inscriptions to keep them legible. https://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/52197461757

Re: PESO: An old country graveyard

Thank you. I don't use Lightroom, and I haven't done much Photoshop in the last couple years, so some of my skills are really rusty. I did use layer masks on curves & levels to make the headstones pop & NIK filters to push contrast as far as I could to try and make the headstones more reada

Re: PESO: An old country graveyard

I like this; particularly the colors and the texture of the headstones. One might use the brush in LR to brighten the headstones a stop or so. Rick > On Jul 4, 2022, at 9:31 PM, John Sessoms wrote: > > https://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/52194803449 > > Been kinda' saving this one for

I have not been doing much photography lately. I went into isolation in March 2020 when the Covid lock-down went into effect and I've barely been out of the house since then. Recently I've been doing a massive spring cleaning to try to de-clutter my house. Included in that I've been going over
