Description

I happened upon this man fishing in his boat. I was practicing using my spotmeter in manual mode -- I used the smaller rock on the right across the river as a middle tone and shot the picture.

Thank you, Carol! Your comments are greatly appreciated. I wish the man would have moved himself over to the right a little... :) #21753

I drive by this river daily.....and each shot is still beautiful.....as the river changes as quickly as it flows.

Good one! #21813

Hey, Connie -- thanks for your comments and picture. Was yours taken in the city of Roseburg in a dry river bed? I can't tell where it is, but it looks like it's near the Visitor's Center... I'm probably completely off. I like your photo, the colors are great! #21818

I looked at your photo again and there's water under that bridge!! Ok, where is it, I give up!!! :o) #21819

This one was taken at Stewart Park. If you take Harvard Ave. to Stewart Park you drive over the bridge.....

I love that the shot made a "local" wonder where.....best compliment I can get! Thanks :o) #21825
