Rawdon 76th






I couldn't decide which of the last two I preferred. My regrets for missed shots for this lot were: the pink sunset over the lake which I got some shots of, but by the time I finished what I was doing and went out, they were dull and lame. The truck hanging suspended by a chain that went to the undercarriage from a metal structure on a lawn that I wimped on taking because it was in front of the crazy house, a barn whose side walls had apparent laid down, even though the roof looked new and perfect, which I missed because I was driving and didn't have time to stop.

Week in LeHave


I found it hard to sort out best of from all the ones I took. Ones worth posting. Because I was fitting photography in around where I could, on walks to things, on drives to things, I didn't do a lot of adjusting. I shot, and looked later, so there were very few great images in what I got. Which begs the question should I post middling images with good parts? I debated it, and then decided since I'm posting it largely for my own interest, rather than viewership, I'd post what I wanted to, and not worry about diminishing quality. The time to worry about that is when taking the next batch. 

Best:



Shore:




 It was acutally this bizarre blue colour. No filters or editing, just wierd wierd sky.




 I had a bunch with that stupid tree ruining my shot. Had I been paying attention, I would have gone down and removed it.

 This one is where I learned it wasn't my aperture setting messing me up before, because this was as high as it goes, but relative depth of field. This would have been a much better shot from the other side of the road. The out of focus background would have been a softer out of focus, rather than a 'hey look at me, I'm out of focus.'




Ships: 











Other: 




  The things you see in downtown ns...


 I think a polarizing filter would have cured most of what ails that one.
