Thanks. Three years later it's hard to remember my motivations, but that was the trip I went north to bury my mom so I might not have focused as much on trimming down the gallery as I might otherwise On May 24, 2024 1:37:57 PM PDT, Rick Womer wrote: >Larry, there are some really nice photos

Re: Devil's Punchbowl

Larry, there are some really nice photos here. For me, though, the many near-duplicate images dilutes the impact of the whole set—for example, were 11 similar shots of the raven and 8 of the eagle really necessary to post? Rick > On Apr 26, 2021, at 8:59 AM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: > >

Those are two very well-done galleries. Thanks for sharing. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On Sun, Apr 25, 2021 at 10:06 PM Larry Colen wrote: > It’s been a few years since I discovered Otter Rock between Newport and > Depoe

Devil's Punchbowl

It’s been a few years since I discovered Otter Rock between Newport and Depoe Bay. Somehow on previous visits I totally missed Devil’s Punchbowl (not to be confused with Devil’s churn in Perpetua). At high tide, flushing the punchbowl:

wonderfully here! Not far from the Devil's Punchbowl fall we also have a Bridal Veil Falls: http://www.bluemoon.net.nz/photo/photodb/view.php?p=449 I'm not sure how close you can get to that one; after the trek out to the first one we really couldn't be bothered finding out. I took that using

Re: PAW - Devil's Punchbowl Waterfall

So, why not paint in a sky that's similar to the one that was in the original scene? Actually, you could have made two exposures, one for the scene and one for the sky, and used the original sky. FWIW, over the past few months I've taken a few shots of the sky for just the very purpose. Several

I think for many purposes a gradient ND filter would be better, I think I've seen one somewhere. David Mann wrote: On Sep 30, 2006, at 8:29 AM, Kenneth Waller wrote: Nice composition subject, but the white sky ruins this one for me. Don't have a suggestion for the sky issue but the

Beautiful. Great use of perspective to create drama. Is this on the south island? I'm just finishing a novel. A considerable amount of it takes place on the south island in a small farming town called Ashburton, which is about an hour south of Christchurch. I've had a good time researching it

Missed the original post Davis, but have to compliment you on the composition. Limited range of colors, along with nice lighting, make for a terrific shot. Jack --- Christian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: David Mann wrote: No pretty flowers this time around; this is real men's country ;)

Re: PAW - Devil's Punchbowl Waterfall

Very good shot. I can imagine just how wet it could be. A few years ago I was trying to get shots at Bridal Veil Falls in Yosemite when the runoff was high. I could not keep the mist off the lens - never got a shot I liked. You've done wonderfully here! -- Bruce Friday, September 29, 2006,
