DEPICTIONS: A tale of PORTRAITS
Before my marriage to landscape, I was a disciple of portraits.
I missed shooting portraits.
That is why I would like to share some of my collection of portraits taken during a trip with Manny Librodo in Pagsanjan.
I wanted to rekindle my love for portraits and here are some of my work...

While traveling along a quiet Colorado backroad, I came across this beautiful grove of Aspen trees. The timing couldn’t have been any better, late afternoon light filtered softly through the leaves as spotty clouds drifted above, creating a perfectly soft backlight. And, this is why it’s worth slowing down and letting the road lead the way.
When I’m on a photography trip, I rarely follow a set agenda. Instead, I let the conditions guide me. On this day, I noticed clouds building over a distant mountain range and decided to chase the weather. That wandering path ended up leading me to some incredible light. Ansel Adams once said, “Luck follows a prepared mind.” I’ve found that to be especially true in photography. Knowing where the most potential lies helps guide my choices, but some of the best moments still aren’t planned at all, they just unfold when preparation meets opportunity.
We have a roop top deck at this rental house we live in currently. This is our view looking towards the cul de sac and the mountains.

“Learning became her.
She loved the smell of the book from the shelves, the type on the pages, the sense that the world was an infinite but knowable place.
Every fact she learned seemed to open another question, and for every question there was another book.”
— Robert Goolrick
I decided to pull from my vast archives for today's fence (and I do mean vast)! *big grin*
I had a choice: the snowy fence or the sunny fence. Decided to go with the sunny fence.
I live right on the edge of civilization. Chicago is the biggest city in Illinois, and Aurora is the second largest city. That is hard to believe! It seems like the rest of Illinois is rural farmlands. Heading west from my house down the interstate is complete emptiness ... a sea of cornfields.
It was bone chillingly cold when I took this image, but somehow it feels warm.
"Happy Fence Friday!"
This is from our Texas Road Trip in October. All I did was a bit of curves, levels and hue / saturation sliding to brighten up and saturate the image! We didn't see the bats return to the cave at Carlsbad Caverns; so we ran up to at least catch this beautiful sunrise! I thought we were done with snow for a bit an needed some warm sunshine!!
Happy Sliders Sunday!
“Standing on the snow-covered plain, as if in a pasture amid the hills, I cut my way first through a foot of snow, and then a foot of ice, and open a window under my feet, where, kneeling to drink, I look down into the quiet parlour of the fishes, pervaded by a softened light as through a window of ground glass, with its bright sanded floor the same as in summer; there a perennial waveless serenity reigns as in the amber twilight sky, corresponding to the cool and even temperament of the inhabitants.
Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.”
— Walden (1854) by Henry David Thoreau
(Chapter 16: The Pond in Winter)

False color is quite good, muted a bit but more experiments with the CWB may bring out greater range of false colors. The edges were soft as same as any APS-C partnered with a 10mm lens. The colors of this photo was inverted in PS to get the usual infrared colors of the r72.
