LOL so you THINK...I staged the whole thing, actually committed a big crime last night and you caught me...I tried to stage my alibi ;)


Been a hard week keeping up with the pic a day...ack! Not happy with tonights...but Im a bit tired and I might not even post it til the morning! (Im such a rebel like that LOL)

And THANK YOU, Sandy! It was a nice birthday :) We went to Saybrook Fish House for dinner with some friends and at 10:30 I was running around on the way home trying to find a shot!

G'nite world....

:D :D :D

Karina, that's a nice shot - and 10 secs too....that's a long one! One thing I noticed - specifically with the larger size image - was that the left hand border of the shot is not in line with the building. Ifound my eye drawn to it straight away. Did you notice it? :)

Yep, noticed that. And while I could correct it in PS I kinda preferred it untouched. Unfortunately I had very little room to work being on the busy roadside with cars parked directly behind me, trees, hydrants, benches, etc. I couldnt find an angle that made the building straight (it is just a tiny section of a larger and shorter building attached to its left side). I think I would have had a better shot from the street, but that was not an option as it was a busy downtown street :( Any suggestions? Its always hard keeping the ground level and getting the correct angles in regards to buildings...at least for me :confused:
