    bowdown.gif Gretchen...:D
    Now I look, no: Now I see, or rather I look and I see now how poor were my images some time ago.:cry

    I think I am doing something better these days ...
    I am more demanding and I master LR (a little) and CS4 (a very small piece)
    I post few pics and only those I think are good.
    Thank you for the comment. :Dthumb.gif

    I am working with Photoshop Elements and Camera Raw and trying to learn more about the sharpening needed with the Canon 50D, etc. Your point about developing a critical eye is well-taken.

    BTW, I haven't yet tried the technique you used for your second shot here but it looks like fun!

    My second shot is not a CS4 work.
    It was done with the 24-70 at a low speed and zooming at the same time.
    A technique I have used before with some success.
    I can't remember but I have shot some 5/6/10 pictures to get this one.:D

    Thank you for explaining how you got this shot. I figured you had done this in camera but have only seen it done before with multiple exposures (with film).

    I rarely hide what I know.
    And the more I learn, the more I understand that I know nothing :D

    two images
    Antonio,
    very nice entries, thank you! thumb.gif
    First one is definitely delivering the Spring feeling, and your signature zooming action makes second one a nice addition, too! clap.gif

    Finally Spring
    [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]After a long drab winter, I decided to go out and capture the colors of spring.

    I don't mean those metal or plastic thingies. I also don't mean the water source (although it's possible to have a Spring of Spring:-). I mean the season. You know, melting snow (if you had any, that is), blossoming trees, lovers not giving a damn what others think...
    The feeling.
    The feeling of Spring.
    Catch it - and you're in!

    As always: fresh pictures, moderate post-processing.
    For the rest of the basic rules and index please check out this sticky.

    Let's celebrate the Spring!
    Thanks,
    Jake

    Jake,
    while it's a nice colorful shot, there is nothing in it that screams "spring" for a non-witness.. ne_nau.gif

    After a long Minnesota winter it screams spring for me, but I can see how others might not see it that way. I swapped out the image for one that is more likely to scream "Spring".

    Have a great day!
    Thanks,
    Jake
