GESOs: Birds, flowers and waterfalls
I've added three small galleries under the FloraFauna folder on my photo site; these cover the last three days of my trip around Lake Michigan. FloraFauna folder is here: http://photos.stanhalpin.com/f373033916 Last three galleries are new. When I left Milwaukee after the gathering there, I headed north into central Wisconsin. Sunday morning I spent time in and around the Horicon Marsh National Wildlife Refuge (NWR): http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p818771490 Sightings included several Black-backed Stilts and Dunlins (new to me and rare in the midwest). And my first relatively close-up view of a pair of Redhead ducks. I then proceeded northwest into the Upper Peninsula (U.P.) of Michigan. Quite a bit of rain along the way and overnight. Monday morning I spent in and around the Seney NWR; http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p1006118452 Monday afternoon I drove through heavy rain to Whitefish Point, usually one of the top birding spots in the state, especially during spring migration. It seemed that all the birds were hunkered down because of the cold wet weather, so I did also. I stayed overnight in Paradise, then did some short walks around the Upper Falls at Tahquamenon Falls State Park before heading south for home through more rain. Besides the Falls etc. I did see an American Redstart pair (new to me) but couldn't get any decent pictures. Couldn't even get my usual picture of the Macinaw Straits bridge - too much fog/low-lying clouds. The 3rd gallery has a few shots of the falls and elsewhere in the U.P. http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p542727846 An enjoyable trip, one I would like to repeat when the weather is a bit drier. stan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

RE: Man near Brown Line
Brilliant! I won't say perfect because that's a meaningless word when it comes to art but this is amazing. Best photo I've seen since the last photo I said this is the best I've seen in a long time. Problem is with all the brilliance on this list that's quite often. ;-) cheers, frank --- Original Message --- From: Christine Aguila christ...@caguila.com Sent: May 22, 2013 5/22/13 To: PDML List pdml@pdml.net Subject: Man near Brown Line A curious man. He used the piece of cardboard to sweep litter, then he'd rest and seemingly contemplate his next move. I suppose it's unfortunate the black van is behind him, but traffic was heavy, and the passing cars might have proved a greater distraction. Perhaps the black van simplifies the background as opposed to traffic congestion in the background? I got a little lucky with the set of 3 men. Once I took this shot, the curious man knew what was up and turned his back towards me.

PESO: Nicolaus Grocery
This morning my wife and I took a tour of a few very small back water towns in our area. Was looking for history in any form. Was equipped with both the K-5 and K20. I collected a passel of shots, but they are all of this building. May post another piece or two later. I found parking in the area very restrictive. Consequently, most were shot with the K20/DA 16~45. Got a few with K-5/DA*50~135. Went out early hoping for a bit of sweet light, but all I encountered were deep shadows in those areas I wanted.. May back track some day and try a couple scenes again. Comments?

Re: PESO: Nicolaus Grocery
Thanks, Ann. This yellow/beige wall was brilliantly lit by an early sun. It was so bright that the sensor tried 18% gray and darkened everything. I lightened it all somewhat. The sky, tree and dark globs in the front were treated to an extra smidge of lightening with color curves. Couldn't handle the lighter sky, so just left it along. I haven't forgotten it. Will probably do some surgical dodging.

I stayed overnight in Paradise, then did some short walks around the Upper Falls at Tahquamenon Falls State Park before heading south for home through more rain.

A fascinating scene. I like the flag and porch in scene. The car wheel is a bit of a distraction, but the trailer bothers me more.
