Summer in Frankenmuth, the fountain in front of the Chamber of Commerce and a local farmer combining wheat!

the fountain photo is very good. I also like the second and third photo but again on the left side of the photo, I see a black hue that appears to be a lens hood. If that is what it is you might want to get the lens hood recommended by the manufacturer of your camera and this will go away.

The fountain shot seems to have a blue tint to it especially the statues. also fill flash would have taken care of the darkness around the statues. I do love your work you definetly have an eye for compistion.

Thanks Sinatraman, the blue tint was the actual color of the fountain...the vignette is a technique I seem to really like so I put the black stuff there..:) Thanks for your input though. Thanks for the compliments too!

I grew up in Frankentrost, a small community near Frankenmuth. At the time Frankenmuth was just a small farming village. My older brother was a member of the first graduating class at Frankenmuth High.

Do you still live in the area Pictureman? I don't live too far from Frankentrost actually. Maybe 4 1/5 miles

Aahhhh...memories...I drove a combine one summer after my junior yr of high school. Was north of Glasgow Montana. Also hauled hundreds of hay bales, drove a swather, 3 tractors and had lots of fun.
The combine had to be greased every couple hours, but I really had a good time that summer!
Thanks for the memories!!

It's been more than 50 years since we lived with my grandparents in Frankentrost.
My wife and I are retired from jobs in the Lansing area; we now live in Montague, MI six months, October in Illinois with our daughter and the remaining five months in Mission, TX. We have been full-time RVers for about 6 years now.

Very Good, Penny.
I like the black "haze" mask you added to your pics.
It really gives warmth to them.
