busy busy busy Friday, April 04, 2008 | 2

I'll give you two pictures today since I missed a picture for yesterday (dsl was down last night). Here are two shots whose backgrounds are too busy in my opinion; I tend to like simpler shots with something to draw your eye in, and this doesn't happen with these.

This shot is a digital shot which was on a very sunny day. I was able to underexpose it to get that great sky color (while also using a polarizing filter). The bottom shot is a film shot I took using a borrowed camera a couple of years ago.

my dad's sign Wednesday, April 02, 2008 | 2

I'm trying to picture my dad wandering around craft shows to find the perfect sign to hang from the back porch. And believe me, that's a funny image to have in your head. So, I doubt my dad found this sign, but I know he'd tell you that it's true (even if my mom bought this and made him hang it up).

Just kidding, Mom.

albuquerque and volcanic rock Tuesday, April 01, 2008 | 2

I experimented with something tonight-some high pass sharpening on a duplicate layer and then faded it out to about 30% visible. It's a subtle change, but it looks nice. Seeing the snow on the west mountains over there is making me wish for cooler weather (it's been in the 80s here).
