We spotted some very cute mushrooms high up in a tree - but it was getting dark and my 300mm doesn't have IS. Still, I managed to get a couple of shots that were passably sharp.
This one has been edited in Silver Efex Pro 2.
Better on black.

This 2-½ story gray fieldstone house, circa 1790, is the former home of Judge Hugh M. Morris, a Delaware native, respected attorney and distinguished federal judge. Delaware's Division of Parks and Recreation acquired the property in 1998 and made it a part of White Clay Creek State Park.
From Afar II - X
I'm continuing my series called From Afar, based on subjects which are far from the coast. The intention is not to bring these subjects closerwith the use of a longer lens. But it's a play of subject with negative space and composition to show distance. A deeper meaning into this series would be a longing of what we want in life but not necessarily what we need. What we want sometimes takes time therefore there's a need to live with what we have. By putting it in a context of a theme, I'm forced to work with what I have to deliver and stay relevant with my vision.
I'm continually improving my workflow and processing skills. I'm probably going though stages what other black and white photographers have gone through as well. It's a slow process further more with long exposure. A discipline which can't be rushed. I'm just learning on those subtle tones, control of graduations, every change in pixels applied in small percentages. I'm just taking my own sweet time.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE:
On this day, which was overcast and drizzly, I decided to drive north along the coast ( Highway 1) and capture long exposure images. I stopped at a vista point near San Simeon below Hearst Castle and captured a few images. I was lucky and was able to nail the
exposure right away.

We had some pretty awesome skies tonight at sunset and I finally got down to these train tracks by my house to take a few shots. I didn't realize that the sky looked so amazing until it was almost too late. Glad I was able to grab a few shots.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE
Rocky Tranquility
A beautiful spot in Cambria, California. Cambria is located north of San Luis Obispo and south of San Simeon. San Simeon is where the Hearst Castle is located and some say the southern edge of the Big Sur area. Cambria is a small sleepy artist colony with many small art galleries and cool natural food cafes as well as your normal array of shops, boutiques and restaurants.
