Winter Sunset









Here's the last keeper from Foster Avenue in Sayville. I originally made three exposures to make a HDR photo from this, but it didn't look as good as this one straight from the camera. It's not the program, it's me not having the patience to sit and play with all the sliders to see what each does. With most subject matter and HDR, I find what I'm looking for fairly fast. But, images with a bright sunspot don't work well in the program for me. Eventually I'll figure it out.

That sure is a lovely sunset - it must have been wonderful to witness it firsthand.

I have little to no understanding about HDR. It's all Greek to me.

Exactly the kind of visual I needed after this hectic day at work..
Thank you my friend for continuing to bedazzle and soothe us weary folk:-)

What a very, very lovely sky. I just love the soft colors. I hope you are able to learn your program soon. That is way over my head for sure!

I had to laugh at your airline story! Bingo as in the in flight entertainment! I would be fine on such a plane, as long as it was safe, but I'm traveling with my mother and mother-in-law and they need more - I'll have to pass on Iberia - I've been hearing some not so good things.
