Re: A River Runs Through

So sorry to read about what you all are having to go through. People keep telling me to look on the bright side but that is always easier said than done. The only bright side I see with y'alls situation is you will be starting now with new everything. I do hope you will be able to recover your

So sorry to hear this, Stan.  Hopefully your insurance will come through and soon life can return to some normalcy. With regard to your photos/images in whatever form you can recover them - over the years I've lost possession of a multitude of images.  The flowers, landscapes, etc all invoke

Looks like you captured a very nice flower, but you need a tad more DOF to get all the petals in focus. The top most petals are slightly blurry or maybe they moved in a breeze. I like the composition with maybe a little less blank space on the RH side. -Original Message- >From:

Re: PESO:

Very nice. I might crop that 4x5 ratio to get rid of a lot of the empty space. On my screen it looks like detail is lost in the highlights. What might be fun is a very tight crop on the center of the flower, and that would also get rid of a lot of the blown highlights and out of focus. On May

Kousa Dogwoods bloom much later than the standard dogwood trees. While my other dogwoods flower first, and then develop leaves, the Kousa gets its leaves first, and then the blossoms appear. While this makes them less dramatic than the early spring dogwoods, they are very welcome as they are in

Re: A River Runs Through

Stan, sorry to hear about your troubles with the flood. Good luck with all the cleaning. Your thought of the day of avoiding floods is not an easy message. It is however a useful warning to look into my own storage of pictures, though I keep a part of it in the cloud. Henk Op 2020-05-27 om
