        Glad you like the shot, Giles. Definitely a beautiful place to visit!

        Use it or lose it.

          Another picture and a song. Always thought the song was called Waterfall.

            I was fascinated by all the leading lines, so I took out the camera.
            Then this kid walked by and that made the picture.

              @weftyarn That is a great picture!  Any chance you have one where they are about 3 or 4 steps forward?  It would look like they have the lines trailing them and were the cause of it…

                  Dang, now that you say it I can see it @goosehd …
                  I only took this one shot.

                  You are totally right that this should be a B&W shot, @Jett129

                  The original colored pic just doesn’t work:

                    I test just about every shot that I edit to see if it looks good in B&W,just in case.

                      It isn't high art, but it's a photo I like quite a bit.

                      Canon 5d Mk III w/ 24-105 F/4

                      @weftyarn the B&W definitely has better contrast, but I don't dislike the color version. It's 'moodier', in a way. Either way it's a great shot.

                          Use of Selective Color of a leaf stuck in the snow. Perfect pic for a heatwave.

                              Thanks,It was just random that I picked that file to clean up today. I literally closed my eyes and clicked on it from a drop down menu. Pretty funny.

                                  Love the selective color on the leaf pic!! 👍🏽

                                  Here’s a small selection of yesterdays hike from Wallberg to Risserkogel.
                                  I don’t know why, but I somehow felt like taking many B&Ws.

                                  // Not many height meters. But a perfect Sunday „scenery hike“ //

                                  // The small chapel where our hike started //

                                  // 360deg scenery, the goal always in sight (highest point on the other side of The Valley, too left corner of the picture), also lousy B&W Ansel Adams attempt //

                                  // On the ridge, fantastic view to both sides //

                                  // Final steep section to the top //

                                  // The top //

                                  // No, I will not share my sandwich with you //

                                  // Top view aka lousy Ansel Adams II //

                                  // Back down //

                                  // His and hers //

                                  Use it or lose it.

                                      My first time getting up for the Sunrise,this year. It really was this pretty. Took a phone shot which is unedited,because I thought no one would believe me. This is First Light about half hour before Sunrise 12K ISO.

                                        @Jett129 For many years, I always thought that paintings of Sunrise’s and Sunset’s near water were exaggerated interpretations of what artists saw when painting.  I discovered how horribly wrong I was when my wife and I built our home on the shore of Lake Ontario.

                                        Some of the most beautiful colours I’ve ever witnessed have been since we moved here.

                                        You were able to capture the colours wonderfully.  Thank you!

                                          Thanks! The funny thing is that I’m out there all by myself,and can’t believe how beautiful it is,and my main thought is don’t fuck this up. There’s really about a 10 minute window during First Light,when it can be absolutely stunning. Quite often,though there’s a line of clouds right at the horizon which are getting in the way of the shot. Not the case this time.

                                            Look for the days in the winter when the sun is low in horizon (late November - mid January) for days with the clouds you’ve witnessed.  The sun will illuminate them way before anything else and make the clouds glow brilliantly.  There’s even a shorter window for the colours in your picture, but add in the glowing clouds and it’s breathtaking.  I’ve only managed to see it 10-20 times in 10 years, but definitely worth the effort.

                                            Sadly I’ve never been able to film it correctly as I didn’t have a camera with me or I didn’t capture it at the right moment.  Extremely tricky.
