Oh, that's a nice shot, ~ O ~!!

Yes, really cool Oscar. Also try with backlighting, you get some really cool effects and amplified highlights strewn everywhere. Try also slow exposures (about 1 sec) when the wind is blowing, may produce wonderful ethereal effects! Welcome to the club.

From Erindale I discovered a field of tall grasses blowing in the wind and wild grapes
which I already posted.

From this new location, called Riverwood, I discovered a field of loosestrife and goldenrod;
and I like this location even more. It's where I took the abstract.

Sometimes dark and mysterious as I walk under a canopy of trees:

And to think for years I never visited these places!

From RBG walks:

Went on walk with a neighbour who wanted to learn photography. We headed to a park which has college campus on its grounds. As night fell we tried some crazy things I probably never would have tried using ISO 3200 and above- hand held! Who knew, sometimes these things come out.

JR

ISO 12800

ISO 3200

ISO 3200 with gradient added

The stair railing without stairs. Now that's a cracker...

Thanks Oscar. Yesterday I was out showing someone how to look for simple elements like light on structures and
then try incorporate it as past of your image. This combined with a gradient produced this image:

And this one. She said, "told you I would stop for you one day."

And this one taken with cell phone on way home.

On walk in park with a friend...

Another on walk with my friend, this time using tripod for about a 2 sec. exposure.

From today's walk at James Gardens. From the soft and subtle to the harshness of BW bold experimentation.

JR

I think this is overpowering. It looks like flash lit shot. But I will give it a try in downtown Toronto on sunny day.
You Never know.

Eric Myrvaagnes · « **Reply #272 on:** September 04, 2019, 06:17:08 am »

I like 1 and 2, but 3 is too harsh (sharp) for me. I have to take off my glasses to view it, and then it looks like 2.

RSL · « **Reply #273 on:** September 04, 2019, 06:53:40 am »

I disagree. I think #3 is what makes you realize you've finally sobered up.

Exactly. I said, hmm, what would Russ do with this new bold black filter. Why he would shoot sober. So I did. But in my pocket, I kept the ICM filter which is irrepressible, as you can plainly see. Thanks guys.

Now why would I want to sober up?

John, I should have mentioned that I really like that picture. Just shows that if you'd get that intermittently defective lens fixed you could do really excellent work.

Thanks Russ. Just for fun, how about a compromise, half bokeh, half in focus. Taken on tonight's walk.

Ahhh. Love 'em.
