05.19.2022 Learned a New Trick
In the past I’ve ham-handed my attempts at flare removal. Some have turned out reasonably okay and others not so much. I recently learned a method involving an inverted curves adjustment that does a nice job. Of course, this image … Continue reading
04.05.2022 Tuesday Teaser
As I continue romping through my archives, I came across these two examples of Lady’s Slipper beauty from 5 years ago. May is not that far off and it’s about time I paid them another visit. I photographed one here … Continue reading
11.29.2020 Another view of Mount Monadnock

05.27.2015 The pinks get their due too

05.24.2015 Sunrise over Mount Monadnock
Why do I get up so early every day? Well, the main reason is that Murphy expects his breakfast at 4, but I have always been an early riser since I had a paper route when I was young beyond … Continue reading
02.23.2015 The Patten Redux w/Nuclear Sunrise
This is a similar but different image from that which I posted back in October. Again, sorting through files I decided to give this a go as it includes the sun which I had avoided in the previous composition seen … Continue reading
