I have to say, I'm sick of all of this about now (after having a nice time capturing the winter, even). But I do appreciate the pain one's passion can let one endure [g]

A cool series, but this one slays me for it's simplicity in communication.

Surprisingly her connecting here isn't as engaging as I'd thought. "Distracted" was much more interesting. Good call.

Yep. Great minds think alike.

Her friend connected with the camera much better however.





I had to crop this heavily and do a lot more work in GIMP to fix the background exposure and some other issues.
 
. . . making sure I didn't forget what I knew yesterday - that MUST be the reason to be compelled to go out to shoot something, anything, so often. [shrug]

It's been an interesting few days, these from Friday evening and Monday morning.

Another cold, yet beautiful day. The afternoon light was wonderful, and as I was waiting for an oil change, I noticed the sunlight on a boarded up brick building next to the auto place. Fortuantely, my camera was with me, and I was able to get a fair number of shots before I stopped being able to feel my fingers...

Being up early has its advantages. For example, you get to see this wonderful, soft and golden early morning light. Provided the sky is free of clouds, which, fortunately, it is again — since yesterday. After two weeks of overcast. It’s still freezing cold, but I prefer freezing cold with sunshine over freezing cold with dull gray. Anyway, here’s a snapshot from one of our office plants that I couldn’t resist taking. The light was just too beautiful!



Thanks for looking!

For the (abandoned) ships wheel trough a frozen dirt stained window I used "yesteryear" Lightroom preset with some sharpening,
pen2 Fisheye image is OOC jpg (i-enchance picture mode with -2 to saturation)
btw tnx for all your comments :)
 
Those last two B&W shots are incredible Bob. They play to my bias and I love 'em. I almost started to think the one through the trees didn't have enough contrast until I looked at it a bit larger and saw how jet-black the branches are under the snow. Brilliant...

I love the first shot, when I first looked at it I assumed it was snow (duh!), and then saw the others.
I can't wait for summer (also known as July here in Canuckland).

Hi Bob. Thanks for your comment. This was actually my first time in a dark room, myself :) I don't know the terms.

In the second photo, we're looking through a focusing aid (I had to look it up). :) http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Focusing-Aids/ci/748/N/4288586558

Basically, you have to shine light through the negative onto the photographic paper. Just like a projector, the farther from the paper, the larger the image (you can create a crop), and just like a projector you have to focus the image every time you move the projector farther from or closer to the paper. The focusing aid lets you zoom in on the projection. You're generally trying to see the film grain, since the photo itself may be out of focus.
 
Very nice Ann. I love how you shoot the same basic view (from your home, it sounds like) at various times of year and under different conditions. This is another really beautiful and nuanced version. I don't have enough of a view from my home to do the same, but there's an agricultural preserve about five minutes away where I often take my dog to let her run and I often take a camera along. And I have shots from all seasons from there. Kind of fun to see the same place under so many different conditions.

Keep 'em coming!

love the blend of colors
 
these are all great shots, do not know why second one reminds me of some old scarry movies :P
I like the last one most
 
Yeah it is a weakness of the 9-18mm, I used to obscess about CA, I just can't be bothered fixing it anymore LOL

Having a Pentax DSLR will cure you of fixing it otherwise you will have no spare time left ;-)
