    Hiya Ben, that was Bryce Canyon, Utah. A photo opportunity is literally around every corner. Head to the southwest American Desert if you can. The skyline was left out as it was one of those dull-grey sky mornings. I had some better skies down the road in Northern Arizona.

    I would but I'd probably have to put new shoes on - it's precisely 8,062.8 miles or 12,975.8 km from over here in the middle of Australia. Add about another 1,200m to that as I'm at this moment that far underground at work. [Y] Man I just love night shift...


    Cheers, Ben.

    A 'pseudo-HDR' snapshop from my Sony DSC-TX5 point and shoot in Page, Arizona.

    Yes, fantastic pics from Erno. Those would be from Bryce Canyon in Utah.

    Wow it almost looks like a HDR photo. Did you do a lot of post-processing on this one? Anyway cool photo, is it a house/boat combination or something?


    That fly is very shiny! Nice shot, did you purposely focus on that point? Anyway your shots just made me want to get my camera and try out my macro-flash, thanks! []

    The boat photo was taken at the Renaissance Fair and all I did was very minimal cropping and some sharpening in DPP. I was pleased it turned out as well as it did. The fly was not my intentional subject. I was patiently waiting for a butterfly to land and he caught my eye because he was so shiny. So I took a quick shot and the butterfly flew away!

    You should be pleased, it's very nice.

    Haha I'm sorry to laugh, but that's why I don't like butterflies...they are like the people on wallstreet during the day, they don't sit still for 1 second [:P] I have to get out more at early mornings and evenings instead of during the day I guess...

    My first nature post. It's was still raining that day and had a little wind issue, so I did the best I could. Fumbled through LR trying to remove the HUGE amount of green to show off the tree and path, then went to PS and cloned out leaf that stuck to the tree. Didn't know LR had a removal tool until too late. Anyway, hope you like it.[img]/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.00.40.90/storied_5F00_path.JPG[/img]
    Words get in the way of what I meant to say.
