Lovely desert image Patricia! I love the soft hues and silhouettes of the cactus and brush. The crescent moon add the perfect touch. How long an exposure did you use? #1302005

Thank you, Dee....here's where those filters I was talking about can be applied. First the exposure was .8 @ f11; auto exposure; iso 100, 75 mm focal length using a 75-300 mm lens, metering was partial, mode....the original is quite different as this was processed in Lewis' class using a Cooling Filter (LBB) at 45% density in CS4....I'll send you the reduced PS file so you can see the original....truly amazing...as I also mentioned...it may prevent me from carrying all my glass filters in the field....but I still don't think the polarizing filter will be left at home! Have a great day.....=^..^= #8864316
