I'm revisiting old photos and developing them anew. Truthfully I'm procrastinating ... I will need to snowblow the driveway sometime today and I am just not in the mood. This is a street portrait that I think has potential but my skills with Photoshop won't let me 'get it to where I want it to go.' It was taken on the Lisbon subway (it was dark and the train was moving) at 1/15 second and subsequently is not as sharp as I would have wanted. I used 'high pass sharpening' and 'shake reduction' which improved it considerably. It's still not 'there' but perhaps it's closer to what I intended when I took it?

Contemplating the change of season with winter on the way. We were particularly intrigued with the short tail on the top sparrow and the down feathers on the bottom. "Yours is bigger than mine" springs to mind.

 

The view from the terrace at Schloss Heiligenberg in early spring. Such a peaceful place in the afternoon sun.

A night song from the thicket, captured on a walk to the post office at dusk back in April and almost forgotten.

This wind ruffled female kingfisher spent some minutes deciding on whether to dive for another fish...sometimes she would and at other times she decided against it and flew off.
