PESO - Undisturbed
I've done very little shooting in 2015: It's been very cold, and I've hurried to work and then come home well after dark. Saturday was different, with scattered high clouds and temps ~4C/40F. I took a long photo-walk to nearby Woodland Cemetery. For the next few days I will torment you with pics. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=17982917size=lg (K-5, DA 16-45) Comments appreciated!

Got skis? snow shoes? :-) that little patch of sunlight on the left makes this rather cheery feel better - and next year you will get a flu shot, right? ann On 1/9/2014 11:05, Paul Stenquist wrote: With frigid temperatures for the last few days, no one has ventured out on our deck since the big snowfall.

On 9/1/14, Paul Stenquist, discombobulated, unleashed: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=17648235size=lg I like that. I tried cropping off the background at the top, making it asymmetrical, and liked it even more! -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) |Web Video Production --www.seeingeye.tv _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
PESO Undisturbed
With frigid temperatures for the last few days, no one has ventured out on our deck since the big snowfall. This morning the sun came out, so I opened the door and snapped a pic.

Looks ready for a garden party, Paul. Beautiful, peaceful ambience.

Re: PESO Undisturbed
Very well rendered. ...but in rendering I pushed it up a wee bit so some of the very brightest highlights are clipped. Looked better that way. I need to keep that in mind as I usually just go 'mechanical' with the histogram in rendering during the optimization of the image from RAW. Mechanical = no clipping w/o regard to actual image.

Re: PESO Undisturbed
My feeling is that the snow is ideally exposed. Partially due to the title and theme of the image. Just about perfect all around, Paul. Yeah, don't mess with the flu this year and get past it soon!

Very nice. Nice garden furniture too. I hate plastic garden furniture.
