Ha. I've been trying all week to get a 20-mins-past-sunset of that kind with the flowers of my Kanzan Cherry in the foreground. Every evening this week since Sunday I've perched on a utility ladder with my head among the blossoms waiting for the clouds to go red. Nada! Well I got some wimpy results Tuesday and Wednesday which I may post here after I toy with them a bit. But never the big spectacular colour gradients I was hoping for.
I need a better view. Like Frank's. :-) (I wonder what the neighbors must have thought of me?) On Fri, May 10, 2013 at 7:52 AM, Gerrit Visser <[email protected]> wrote: > Excellent.
