Same day as the previous post: a distant view and a close up view. It was a challenge!

This is the same photo I uploaded on March 6 (straight out of the camera), on March 20 (using the Orton Effect) and today using a layered texture.

Something different. No bokeh today (sometimes I've got to do it). I had to stand in this spot for a while to get the path with no people on (there are some people in the distance though), but every time I tried to get a shot, someone would walk/cycle/skateboard into my shot. Now, if I trying for bokeh people, that would be fine, but instead, I probably looked like I was lost or something just standing there. :)

Happy Thursday! The weekend is in sight! I've looking forward to some quality time with my camera. I haven't picked it up for several weeks, and with the days getting really short, it's hard to find time or the light to get anything worth it. I always seem to be using the same lens recently, which is fine, but I do think I need to take some other lenses out for a spin this weekend. Maybe The Beast (macro lens)... or I might try and see if the garden birds co-operate with my big zoom lenses. We'll see... :)

It's the same moon

when you first showed me the stars

high above the lights of freeways cars

my family gone, a home no more

crying until everything was sore

It's the same moon

a wound among barren, lonely places

hidden in turned away faces

my song ending soon

I have changed, I forget the tune

but it is still the same moon

A different angle approach on the same subject as last time :)

نعيش من الفراغ ما الله به عليم

حتى كان لكل صغيرة وكبيرة ضجيج نملأ به جنبات سكون الفراغ

عرفنا الدنيا منذ ولدنا والشر فيها هو الغالب .. وما زلنا ندندن على نفس القيثارة

نلعن ونشتم الفسق والعهر .. وستبقى اللعنات تصيب الظلام ولا نرى شموعا

هكذا صارت كل أوقاتنا تنفيس وثرثرة .. تحدث ضجيج أكبر من واقع ما يحتاج إليه كل أمر

Sorry, flickr reproduces this picture in an absolute shitty quality in the smaller versions :(

Compare to the original version :

In photoshop the image file looks technically very good with relatively smooth gradations in the dark area (at the walls).

Maybe someone of you has an idea what the problem could be...

Same camera, same dog, three years difference...

Same sketch idea as previously but different primary colours:-

Cobalt Blue, Aureolin Yellow, Crimson Alizarin

Same old me

This is another shot of the lovely weather we found at Tybee Island, GA. The Beautiful Weather for Gulls was shot at 9:43 am; this one, later the same day, at 9:09 am. It was shaping up as photographically interesting, but not much fun in the sun.

Same locomotive, same train, same location one week later, different result!

Same bird as previous post (excuse the pun!)

same shoot as the last upload. [ +2 in comments. I swapped the main with the second in comments.] first one in comments with the same action as the last upload (so NO the red is not real).

i'm kind of proud about the sharpness as it was manual.

i know this is too much about beauty. but i don't care. it's good to feel beautiful from time to time.

So why worry about the outside?

Okay, this took FOREVER!

And it was A LOT of work.

And you can see some of my eraser lines, so ignore those.

I wasn't sitting as straight as I should of been.

So it's not completely anatomically correct!

Yup, same sh**, same wavelength, different development however. I like this fire carrot style; first time, never done before (by me). 😊

Man, almost overwhelming how many possibilities there are (now), even for doing "the same" thing, e.g. yellow foliage. But there are differences, nuances, or thing I like or don't (like fringing) to exploit or avoid. I'm trying to stay experimental as long as possible, and to not hone in on something too quickly, I'll do that soon enough I'm sure.

Still cannot leave

And yet - shouldn't stay forever.

Here is nearly the exact same location as my prior post but the freight edition.

After chasing the PF11 crew with the coal train to Bailey I was done before 0730 when the crew outlawed but that wasn't going to be a problem this day. An AF3 crew had come on duty at 0500 at the shops in Michigan City and run light out to Burnham Yard just across the state line. After switching out their cars they planned to depart around 0830 with a big cut to set out at Bailey before taking the rest of their train to Michigan City.

So we turned back west and headed to Hammond where I picked out a spot to wait just east of Hammond Station near MP 68.1 on the South Shore mainline where the electric interurban route climbs up and over CSXT's Barr Sub. The wait turned our to be a bit longer than planned, but just moments after train 504 slid by headed west to Chicago the South Shore Freight crew curled into view on Main 1 and started the ascent the ramp that will lead it up and over Columbia Ave. and CSXT's Barr Sub mainline right behind me. The crew has a healthy size train trailing original CSSB GP38-2s 2003 and 2000 from the ten unit order delivered by EMD during the Chessie System ownership era.
