Steve P.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - And here are the links: Exactly in order - the first one is fine as it is. *You would boost the blue channel a tad, but it's great just like that. *I really like pattern combinations against the blue sky. *Nifty image. http://www.monkeybutler.com/tmp/COPYDSC_2283.JPG Might want to experiment with this one a little. *It's neat and the lens bloom doens't hurt it at all. *Might want to use sharpening unmask control to make it a little more sharp without compromising the over all effect. *As it's a fairly large image, a couple of crops would take the one image and turn it into two - starting on the right, go jus to the left of the tree with the broken branch - snip it and paste it as a new image. *You could also crop to just below the wall and leave that as it is. *That would be really neat looking. Might want to convert it out to grayscale - not sure how that would go and I wouldn't presume to try it for you, but the effect would be startling. http://www.monkeybutler.com/tmp/COPYDSC_2317.JPG This could have been a good one, but the focus problem with the berries closest to the lens kind of ruins the over all effort. If you look at it center on, the out of focus berries confuse the eye against the background. *A macro lens would have been a real help here. Great composition though - just a couple of minor issues that mess it up. http://www.monkeybutler.com/tmp/COPYDSC_6251.JPG Just my opinion you understand. * Must live out west of me or maybe a little NW. *We didn't get any of that here in the NE corner of CT. If you have the time and inclination I'd be happy to see you what you would do with the image. I am definitely lacking in the lens department, I only have the kit lens. I'm not too far from you here in Leicester, just north of the Mass. Pike. Here are a few disaster pictures from around my neighboorhood. http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/01.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/03.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/04.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/05.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/06.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/07.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/08.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/09.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/10.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/11.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/12.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/13.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/14.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/15.jpg http://www.monkeybutler.com/help/16.jpg Steve P. |

I still see prison bars, but I also see what *you* saw. This is a shot that I'd say, "Cool pic!" --Mike |

Makes you wonder why we continue to use an archaic system of "telephone" poles to hang 13,500 volts or more along the roadways. Why don't we bury it in ditches with the wire's run in PVC conduit? $$$ Pure and simple. --Mike |

Why don't we bury it in ditches with the wire's run in PVC conduit? $$$ Pure and simple. I am sure it made sense back in the 30's and 40's but the voltage in those days was a lot lower than it is today. Our house is fed with a single, buried coaxial cable about an inch in diameter. (looks like a bigger version of a RG-6 cable company cable). The voltage is 13,500 volts or higher. It terminates in a step-down transformer located near the house. It's a bit scary to think that those "telephone" poles are carrying that kind of voltage, exposed to wind, weather, etc. Eisboch |
