Description

Wish I could say this was the weather we were experiencing in WNY!!! :)

I took this over the weekend using a tripod. I slowed down my shutter speed and zoomed out as the picture was being taken. Then in Photoshop I cropped the image and ran it through Topaz adjust and saturated it some.

I'm entering it into DD...my first time entering this category...not sure it's the best match for the image but I thought it was worth a shot!!!

Have a wonderful day!!! :)

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 3/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 28.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XT

I can comment! The first time since the recent changes that I can comment on an already commented on pic. BP, what's going on? I'm not supposed to be able to do this...I'm a freebie.

Jeanine I absolutely LOVE this. I think I just might try this technique myself. It is really cool. #7242052

Sarah G March 04, 2009

OK I just found a BP note in my mailbox...I've got a 30 trial period. They really want my money...LOL...I'd been on the site for at least a year before they shut me out. I think I know what the place is like.

The people here are great, but the management is frustrating. #7242094
