A wide angle shot at "The Wetlands"in Florida. I used a halcyon filter in post to get the effect of an old Florida Postcard.

    Oh, I really like the colour tone on this... the sepia with green look is nice.

    I don't think thats just Florida. I grew up in IL, and my grandpa was one who left his lights on year round, and used them on special occasions. It gave that birthday party a special touch.

    I love the picture. Great color selection here. It feels very old and warm.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Nice one Trish ^5 I too, like the toning. And you're right, it does look like a postcard you would have picked up during the 50's. Not that I'm old enough to remember, but that's what Harry told me :lol

    Trish, where did you get the Halcyon filter?

    I do love that shot, was a perfect choice for the filter. I used to take the train to Florida every year in the 40s...........that shot look as I remember it.

    ginger, who spent an hour in PS looking for the filter, lol.
    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Ginger,

    The halcyon filter is on my iNova CD. I purchased the tutorial for my Sony Camera. I am not sure if it can be transferred?? I will see if I can figure it out..I use it with PSP7.
