Winding Down - Almost Fall

kygarden

All with Nikon D200 and I think I had the 18-70mm lens on for all of these.

I love this dogwood's colors and tired look this time of year.




More dogwood. I could use more DOF on this one!




I love my ornamental grasses




This would be why I couldn't stand living in a dry climate! I gotta have lush




Finally, some wild perennial sunflowers.




And I should mention, this is all around my house/garden and I planted everything

You have a beautiful garden and I'm with you on the "lush" man. One thing bothers me ... I went to your SmugMug galleries and I had no problem downloading (read "stealing") any of your photos including the Large versions. I have been without a web site since I moved to a different city and had to switch ISP's. I've been telling myself that I really should join SmugMug but I don't need a Pro account; however if anybody can steal pictures from a standard user account, I wouldn't be too impressed with that.

You can restrict the original versions which I did (I think). Also, if you buy the best package, I think there are even more controls that prevent direct copying of an image you're viewing. Someone will have to correct me if I'm wrong.

I found the statement on saving:
Right-click protection

Professional account subscribers can choose to foil right-clicking on their photos on a gallery-by-gallery basis.
Simply choose the customize gallery button and scroll down to find the protected option.
It still allows the user to right-click, save as... (after they see a copyright notice dialog) but the image that gets saved is blank.

Thank you

I took this one just a few minutes ago. Interesting to see a butterfly eating or drinking from a split open tomato. The tomatoes are looking pretty sad this time of year.

Thanks. I was chatting with some guys on the SM support forum and we pretty much arrived at the same thing you said. I guess I'll try a standard account for now and see where it goes.

BTW did I mention that I love your "lush" and your "grasses"? Excellent photography. Beautiful tonality and good contrast for what appears to be overcast lighting.

I added a few more...

Ravenna Grass - Somestimes called hardy pampass grass because it somewhat resembles pampass grass.
