Challenge: "How You Saw Your 4th of July" July 6-10 2020

The "kids" came down and we had a cookout and while 3 of the guys slept, The oldest grandson, his mother, and I played some games on our deck. He IS "Trouble" - a game favorite because he loves sending everyone back to home base and the game can go on for hours![/quote]

I hate ribs... I always eat twice as many as I should...
then somebody brings potato salad...corn on the cob.. pickles
and omg... I hate ribs...
ok... I lie .... a lot... and over eat... ribs, and brisket, and pulled pork, and chicken....

but I always tell the truth... when it's almost better than mine... ;-)...

I have gone out on several foggy mornings
trying to get the steeples of Aurora, through the mist.
Last September, I got this set... and on download
I thought I had struck out again, and left it...
I found them again, yesterday...
And did some serious cropping, and editing..
The last may be a keeper..

The last 2 you have to use the download to see the different finishes
I'm not sure this is all the steeples,
there may be one or 2 below the tree tops...

it started similar to this one...

(Download)

1st crop and edit similar to this one

(Download)

Then it became this one...

Finally, the oil paint filter gave it this finish

Good practice thinking of the possibilities!

I'm having some kind of difficulty here with color being very blue-grey in my photos. The downloads are showing closer to actual. Anyone know a reason why?

I don't have an answer for the blue-gray,
but I sure like this set!!
really nice !
