Three Carnations in Sunlight......

 It is a lovely sunny day today, and instead of blowing up the tires on my old bike and going for a ride and enjoying this +17C weather, I somehow got to taking a picture of these 3 carnations that were in a little vase on the table. It is a very simple image, and nothing to get all fired up about. I just took it and placed it on the railing post on our back deck, and shot it in slightly back lighting.....just a cheery little picture to hopefully bring some a little joy during these looooooooong days we all must endure. Cheers!

Neil, Frank & Eddy.....

 It has been quite a while since my last post, and I had no idea that this image would be the one to get on here tonight. These three fellows were friends of mine, who recently departed this old world. They were all exquisite photographers, and I would not hesitate to call them masters of the craft. When I look at this image, it is hard to imagine that between these three, there is well over 150 years of photographic knowledge and skill. They were old school, but they were quick to learn and master digital as well. Using layers in Photoshop is not my forte', and for the technical purists out there, don't pixel peep too much, it will give you lots to smirk about. But I am learning, and the curve is a long one for some of us, myself included. Anyway, this image is my little homage to three great guys that was a privilege to have known.....We will miss them.....
