Hooker Falls

Sunbeams March 11, 2006 - I had hoped this would translate better from reality to the digital medium, but the beams were starting to fade, and the scene wasn't extremely scenic to start with.

Run Down - This is a bit of a work of art, for me. MUCH more Photoshopping than I usually do, and I really enjoyed it. Blame Heida; her DPC mentorship thread sparked a renewed interest in Dodge and Burn. Paint Shop Pro has never done a very good job at D&B for me, but Photoshop Elements is MUCH better, and there is a world of capability there. Several layers and a bit of work made this have much more depth than even the real thing, and I'm personally proud of it. :)

Travis - just a snap of my boy doing one of the many things he loves...

Wrought Iron - I just like this shape, and I like this shot.

Swingin' - Just a telephoto shot of a front porch swing with a little bit of diagonal added to imply motion...

Bulldogging - Rodeo shot from Saturday night, March 4. Terrible rodeo, but we made a lot of pictures. Some terrible pictures, too.

Sunday Morning 2

Sunday Morning - Actually taken on Saturday, March 4, at a roadside church on our way back from Pigeon Forge. Pretty church.

Blue on Blue - Yeah, still on a diagonals kick. It at least adds a little interest, don't you think? Actually made on March 4.

This is an old one from the archives of 2005, just because I wanted to PP a little bit :)

Don't know what in the dickens to call this shot. It will possibly be entered in DPC Square Crop, so please either vote objectively or do not vote on this image if you see it there. :)
