(no subject)

Let's see if I can do this all proper-like. dreamingcrow, your spring picture is in here; whitecrow0, there are more landscapes as well.

	Still Life I really have a thing about reflection pictures, which can be hard to get with a digital.
	Grasses I took two views of this; I'm not sure which one I like better. The camera is set to a large view, 1600x1800 or something like that, so when I reduced these they pixelated more than I liked.
	Breeze
	Springtime Here's the springtime picture - with everything in coastal blue and grey and green, it was so nice to frame it all through some springtime pink!
	Geometry I wanted to see how this turned out, all the lines and light and shadow of this restored trestle.
	Crescent I love this tree - I don't know how many years people have been carving their names, but there are places worn so smooth...

So, whatja think?

VERY NICE! I do like the one of the reflection pool, altho' there's nothing to focus on, IMO. Maybe if you had put a leaf or something so that it was the subject? But, that's just me.

Shiny! I love the first one.

Helloooo... wanted to let you know I have friended you and I am enjoying your photos now.

My favorites of these are the trestle and the old tree. I wonder if old trees like their body mods?

Oh, so pretty! I hope you'll post more of your pictures in the future. :)

These are lovely, Deb.

The only thing that I'd pass on is that in pictures that use a distinct horizon, such as the grass photos, it's a good idea not to bisect the picture with your horizon. This is one of the few places where I do tend to refer to the rule of thirds (http://www.silverlight.co.uk/tutorials/compose_expose/thirds.html), which usually annoys the hell out of me. Two thirds of one element (water, land, sky) and one third of another tends to work well.

As for the reflections thing, this is why I love my circular polarization filter on the D70. I can change it so that i can see *through* the reflections or amp it back up to focus on the reflections.

I love madrona trees. It really seems to be a thing with people that they have to carve their initials or other things on them though.

Very, very nice. You are inspiring me to get my camera out.
