This is in the countryside near Fall Creek, a tiny town in Lane County, Oregon. It is so small that for a fire department they have six midgets with Water Pik.

1-5 (Interstate 5 in Lane County, Oregon USA) is also known as the Whilamut Passage. Not only painterly but SNIC. Best viewed large to see the painterly effect.

For Dave C. and other Flickr Friends too, the *soul* of this photograph is that some of my very first memories of life were at Golden Gate Park, and now it is nice that my son let me post some of his pictures from when he happened to live nearby it as an adult.

None of them appear very giant from down here in the flatlands! I think there's a Cell Tower too (the kind that pings on all the TV crime shows).

I took the actual photo, but then for fun, I did some photo program painterly effects on it.

(DSCN2219-robinonfenceharbingerofspringinit) I can't really tell if this robin is missing one leg, or if it is just standing in a funny position. Many of my Nikon L820 Coolpix shots end up looking painterly when they are in the larger sizes, so the detail isn't very good.
We're about 3 weeks into Autumn of 2017 and the color is getting better and better. Plus they painted the bridge, which didn't hurt a bit for this lovely place.

Looks human scale, doesn't it? Nope, it is a swinging bench in a tree, for birds! I thought it was adorable. It is only about 18 to 20 inches wide.

Same bridge as a few pictures back, but HDR and from North instead of South. They were taken within 1 day of exactly 1 year apart. I shot this one with a Pentax K-S2 and the other one with a Nikon Coolpix L820. I like each camera for different reasons.
This was the very early beginning of Autumn 2017. Interesting to note how little yellow the types of trees are on the South side. You can see the South entrance by looking through the bridge.

Actually it was also a rainy day for the picture of the bridge right next to this one; but this one showed the wet road and planks more obviously.
The scene at the far end of this bridge shows a paint horse grazing. He is tiny in my photo, but I like paint horses, and I think it is cute that he is in the picture.
Population of nearby Dexter, Lane County, Oregon USA was 2,373

This is my original photo (see two back from here) with several painterly techniques applied to it.

The tree that is most to the right of the viewer is Scrawny. I used to detest him. There seemed no end to how many shots he was in the way of. He grew on me, and I eventually named the little hill after him and started really enjoying seeing him again and again. I named the hill Scrawny Tree Hill.

I marked it with a tiny note. It is toward the bottom on the right 1/3rd of my photo. That one special leaf is the soul of the photo. This is growing in the Willamette Valley, Eugene, Lane County, Oregon USA.

For the Soul of the Photograph (pool) Admin: I think the soul is the single black bird in the tree, when there has rarely ever been a bird perched there.
I say spooky because of the impending rain and storm clouds. It was in fact raining during this shot, but my photo is not what I call a Rainting. To be a Rainting it has to be shot through glass (usually a window) with rain water on the glass. Sometimes, I put my window down, hence rain, but no rainting.
Meanwhile, you might be wondering why I said *Rare* in my title. It's because in all the years I have taken shots of "Scrawny" on "Scrawny Tree Hill" and with the thousands of birds at Finley Wildlife Refuge, seldom, and I mean really seldom have I ever seen a bird perched on him. They often perch on the fence or on other trees nearby, but not on Scrawny. Go figure.

Actually these were outdoor advertising signs that I purposely blurred, just for fun. Sometimes, I get pretty colors that way.
NOTE to ADMINS of 5 Faves and less than 100 Views (when added) and of 50 Plus (Photographers aged 50 and better) groups/pools: this was 97 views and 7 faves when I saw it on my recent activity list. I hope you don't need proof, but if you do, I took a screen shot.

This is a departure from my usual out the rear window shot. I actually drove out on my back lawn, and got out of my truck and took this shot from ground level. Getting really close to sunset, but not there yet.

I'll be happy to explain Raintings if you just ask.
This had a whole bunch of techniques on it. I can't even remember them all, but some were inverted; oil paint; confetti; splash; twist; contrast and saturation.

For "The Soul of a Photograph (group)"
To me, the soul of this photo is the unemployed bit of chain seeking consolation from his little rust spot friends.

This won color of the week award for Blue as of July 5, 2013
Tree shapes are fascinating. I can see anything I want to see in them.
I chose a map location near but not precisely where these trees were.

If you like my word "rainting" I would appreciate it if you would go to Urban Dictionary and vote in the square for thumb's up. Even if it only got 5 or 10 thumb's up and no thumbs down, I would appreciate it. I don't think it has any certain amount it has to get to be in their dictionary. In fact, if I read it correctly, it already got approved and is in.
I don't like to put live links too often but here is a link you can use, I think. There is no prize either, just bragging rights to have a word I coined make it into a dictionary. ;o)

Leaburg Dam is in Lane County, Oregon USA. It restrains the flow of the McKenzie River.
For the Small Town America (pool), Leaburg Dam isn't even exactly in a town, but not too far from Leaburg and Vida, Oregon, USA. The population is about 7 trout and a rowboat. (grin)

The original image I took was in March of 2014. This surreal image I made from it was done July 31, 2016. This is painterly now, but was a very real barn and fence and gates with lovely trees and grasses on a beautiful day.
I was going to say something like "Old Barn on Drugs" as a title, but decided I will use that type of title again some day, but for now it is kind of trite. Then I thought of a facetious one, "Not Exactly Poltergeists" and decided I don't know enough about Poltergeists to know what I am talking about. Lastly I decided that the painterly, surreal effects I used, made it look to me like they were all waving goodbye. So, there you have it!
