A moment of Zen...

A very subdued sunset tonight.

1. I'm running out of words for your

photos Blue. Sublime, beautiful, gorgeous well I am not word oriented anyway. But they are all of them.

2. You're too sweet, CC

Hey, check this one out. (I'm getting creative here with the PaintShop.) There were a bunch of moose out last night when we drove down for the sunset, seven or eight at least. I took quite a few pictures of this one from the truck, but since it was so dusky, the photos were all pretty dark. This particular one I shot with the flash, which made it REALLY dark except I could see the gleam in the moose's eye when I put it on the computer. So I did a bunch of stuff with PaintShop to lighten it up and played with the color, and this is what I came up with -- kind of a graphics art thing, as when I look at it full-sized, the color is really blotchy, like paint splats, and the trees look REALLY funny, prehistoric, but I kind of like it anyway.

3. Whoa, that's cool

It looks almost like a museum diorama. Love it.

4. Nah just honest.

Love the moose too. I can see where it would be very hard to get a shot of it that time of day/night. Glad you are experimenting with paintshop too, though must warn you to beware. You can start playing in there and find out you have spent hours at it with out realizing it.

5. Oh, don't I know? !

Especially since our sunsets are getting so late now (almost 10:00 tonight), I come home, empty the card, play around for (really) just a little while, and before I know it, it's past midnight and I've only worked on a couple of pictures. I had some especially nice ones the other night when I took that airplane shot, and I haven't had time to work on them even a little. Too bad I have to work and make money - it sucks.
