The Bright Idea

This photo is a good bit out of my ordinary type of photo. I ran this one through PS (Photoshop CS4) in an effort to give it more of that wintery feel. I am confident my treatment did lend a bit of cold to the overall feel of the photo. I hope that you also feel the same, I consider this to be one of my best ever photos… Please vote and let me know what you think. I am finding that there are a great number of visitors coming to the site, but not voting, or commenting, please, it only takes a single click of the mouse for you to vote, they are the little stars at the bottom of the photo/post.

Thanks Everyone!

The Overbarn

This is the polar opposite of the previous photo. This is the barn above the barn. I wanted to climb up in the hay loft you can see, but my father recommended against it as the barn has not been well maintained recently. Which was easily identified by all the holes in the floor. I was quick to comply, as falling through a floor is clearly not on my list of things to do.

I hope to get more photos of barns soon, both inside and out. Sadly, the ugliness of winter approaches, as such it will be hard to find anything beautiful to take photos of, everything will be very much lacking color. Though winter does have it’s own photographic appeal to me, perhaps not in HDR though.

Mid-Fire Barn

This photo was taken after trudging through a heavily charred marsh. My shoes were soaked, and black, along with the pants I was wearing. I ended up only being covered in char up to my knees, which easily could have been worse. See, the things I go through for a photo. The char in question was caused by the crazed firefighter from a previous post.
