I keep every photo except the really bad ones . . . and I've taken plenty of those. :(

I think azaleas should be in color . . . well, because they have such rich colors and tones. I like black & white photos too. Did you try increasing the fill light slightly to see what affect it would have?

Very nice shot. I like the zebra tail showing in the photo. Adds visual interest and a bit of humor to the image. Looking at the two birds I imagine a conversation between them: "Do you see anything on the zebra you like, or would you rather fly over the giraffe and see what she has on the menu today?"

Country Mama, you have beautiful views taking your dog to the vet. Having grown up in a rural farming community in North Carolina, I enjoy seeing farm houses and barns. I think you captured them all beautifully. :)

Norman, I like all three of the textured photos. I think treatments such as adding texture can add visual interest for the viewer. I bet all three original photos look great. Old barns and neglected buildings are good subjects for a photographer.

Thanks Skip. Temps have been much warmer this winter than last year. Hope it stays that way.

I do apologize for my ignorance. I quickly learned that I need to click on the Quote Reply button instead of Reply to respond to someone who has commented on one of my comments or photos. Now I need to figure out how to delete a response I posted when I clicked Reply. Duh?

There are so many beautiful and interesting photos of where members live and what they find beautiful in their home areas. I live near the ocean along the North Carolina coast. Everywhere I look I see beauty. These beautiful flowers were growing in the dry sand along the dunes of North Topsail Island.

There are so many beautiful and interest photos of where members live and what they find beautiful in their home areas. I live near the ocean along the North Carolina coast. Everywhere I look I see beauty. This photo was taken on the ferry while looking back at the mainland near Swansboro, NC.
