Really Homesick!

aperture f/5.0, shutter 1/180s, lens 20mm
One last fix and then I'll sleep.
I finished.
I tried to sleep.
It turned out to be a challenge.
The recliner wanted to dump me on my head.
It was against the rules to
crawl in bed with my Darling
during his sleep study ;)

LOL I also have a better exposure of this view ... sans ducks. I like the ducks enough to argue with this one in Photoshop. #246079Pam M May 07, 2005
LOL Brian, I'm sunset's captive audience. I wouldn't know about sunrise ... although the last two mornings I caught a glimpse of the sunrise. Maybe I'll work up enough gumption to capture a sunrise.Have fun,

I like the first one Pam Maybe clone out ducks if you din't like them there It's very nice! #1329362Pam M May 08, 2005
LOL Linda ... I was trying to say I have another photo that I took right after this shot that has a much better exposure. These ducks showed up while I was setting up and still getting my exposures right. And I can't count on the fowl around my place to sit still for a second shot -- they didn't. So I'm glad I snagged this one and it was well worth the time spent in Photoshop.The second pic in this thread is the original before I took it into photoshop.
Thanks for the complements ya'll.
Have fun,

I agree with Linda, the first one looks better. Really nice colors.. and mood! #1334765Pam M May 10, 2005
LOL ok ok I promise I will work on my communication skills.I renamed the second photo to make it more clear what it is ... it is the original photograph that this image came from.
Thanks Humayun, I too love the first one ;)
have fun,
