OK Flickr this is your vote.
Let me know if you think that Photoshopping your images is cheating or is it legit use of digital pixels?
Are they born to be abused or are they to be loved as they are native - unsharpened, burned, colour adjusted etc.?
Over to you!
P.s. my photostream may suggest that you get a feeling where my answer lies ;-)
Built for contest, The challenge was to build anything from 1963 (-50) and then the same thing from 2063 (+50).
Sun & heat-dried tall grasses perform a rain dance in the slight breeze against last night's sunset.
Processed with Dynamic Photo HDR and framed with Picnik. Cheated... but this is more what it looked like through my polarized Persols. **revision** replaced with the unframed higher res version (why does Picnik do that?), which looks better large.
A couple of brief afternoon pop-up showers have fallen elsewhere around the city, and our area is in about the 7th week without rain. Everything's drying up ~ we've been under a heat advisory with record breaking temps in the low 100's the past several days (in the shade). There's a burn ban in effect and if we don't get rain this week, chances are there will also be a fireworks ban, just in time for the 4th of July. Talk about the possibility of rain on the parade...
According to my favorite weatherman, Tim Heller's blog at weatherblog.abc13.com/:
Hottest ever in June: 104° (in the shade) on June 24 (Wed.) and 26, 2009 (yesterday, when this was shot). Previous record: 103° on June 18, 1918 and June 30, 1980.
Tim says, "Only a trace of rain has fallen at Bush Intercontinenal Airport this month. And June is usually the wettest month of the year for us. We started the year with drought conditions, then excessive rainfall in April brought us back to normal. Only a third of an inch of rain fell at the airport in May. The last widespread heavy rain fell on April 27 and 28".
However, a "cool" front is in Tim's forecast and will drop our temps down to the upper '90s ~ yee haw... (currently, it's 98 with a heat index of 104 (in the shade)).
On a more exciting note, my new B+W 77 mm Kaesemann circular polarizer (along with the rest of my B&H order) should be here Monday. I can't wait to get it and try it out! But, right now, I have to get back to work... yes, I'm working on the weekend again... boo.
Kumi: “I told you to wash it out! It’s not my fault your boooyfriend called and you got distracted. When did you stop being on my side anyway? Simon’s new. I’m not.”
Yuri (reproachfully): “I am forever and always on your side, Mi-Mi.”
Kumi: *huffs* “Yeah, I know. I’m sorry. I’m still working through this Simon thing, and then this grandfather thing comes along and knocks me flat on my ass again…”
Yuri: “Yes, I realize it has been quite a trying week for you.”
Kumi: *shoves another s’more in mouth*
Yuri: “Simon is good for you. You may be angry with him—and with good reason—but he loves you and you love him. He made a mistake. He is sorry. As for the rest, you two will have to work it out for yourselves.”
Kumi (sneeringly) “[i]Love[/i]. What a load of bunk! Does love make being lied to or cheated on any less heinous? No. It just makes it more difficult to walk away when it happens. As far as I’m concerned, love is just damned inconvenient, and I wish to hell I wasn’t being held hostage by it. I hate it.”
Yuri: “Baby, it will be fine. I promise you. You will not feel this way forever.”

'Cause inner demons don't play well with angels
They cheat, and lie, and steal, and break, and bruise
Angels please, protect me from these rebels
This is a battle I don't want to lose

This is one of those situations where I feel someone took too much risk for a picture. The guy in the picture, who was later ticketed for his stunt, went beyond the park barriers to get where he is. He's on solid ice, and it slopes to the gorge at Niagara Falls. I figured my next few pictures would be of him falling to his death, however he was able to somehow get back safely. I'm glad. I didn't want to see someone die.

For everyone that has played Hand & Foot and knows the bots cheat. This is for you....
I cheated by using a Lee #4 hard grad coral filter to warm the sky a little.

Within the next few days I think I am going to cheat my 52 project and add more photo's per week. Only because it's Halloween and I want to produce as many scary pictures as I can :)

Song
The Trail: Pink Floyd
Movie: Rocky horror picture show.
- When I first watched this movie I had no idea what the plot was, and once I found out what the plot was it became epic. Something about myself...... When I look for new movies to watch, I never watch the trailer, nor do I read the description. And, from doing this I found I really enjoy the movie more when I do not know the plot.
Happy Bench Monday! This restful bench sits by the shore of Cheat Lake in Morgantown, West Virginia.
Changing our clocks forward by 1 hour probably seemed like a good idea many years ago. Times have changed for sure but I question whether it is still as relevant today. All I know is we pay a price in the morning.
My coffee is required to be an extra large to help compensate for this hour difference,
Even as the smoke clears and adjustments are made, I still feel cheated by time!
