Re: PESO - South Park
Actually, what I wish I'd had was a polarizer. A lot of the light is glare off the grass, and I think a polarizer would have tamed the highlights and darkened the sky nicely. Alas, the moment was passing, and there was no time to install the step-up ring and filter...

Re: PESO - South Park
Pretty shot. I like it as presented. The polarizer might have made it a bit heavy and oversaturated. Of course you can always tame that in post. It would have been interesting to see it both ways. Nice work. Paul On Apr 13, 2009, at 5:49 PM, Rick Womer wrote: On my way home from work last week; flowering trees and the spires of Oxford in the background made a nice scene.

Re: PESO - South Park
Rick, Fine scene even without a polarizer. I like the distant towers, the flowering trees, and the pair on the big green lawn. Regards, Bob S.
