Speed Boat

I found a new program (read that as in bought) and was playing with certain filters that it comes with. This one was kinda fun for the right setting. Other than that the photo is not especially compelling, I just like the filter in this instance.  LYLE

ITALY

 I decided to combine photos I took in 1972 I used Elements 8 to make the collage. Starting at the top left is the entrance to the Galleria Toledo in Naples, next the Dome is Il Dumo in Florence, then the Castle Nuovo in Naples, then Michelangelo's tumb it is in Il Duomo in Florence and last is his statue of David also in Florence.

Pitchfork Heaven

This lonely pitchfork is resting peacefully in this scene. It is a 5 shot HDR taken from outside the building through a window. LYLE

Blue Barn

You may wonder about the title for this photo. It is because Ann had borrowed my camera and I didn't think about the white balance before shooting. It was quite blue because she had been shooting indoors and had it set for some interior type of lighting, it didn't work too well outdoors. I just couldn't bring it back enough to get the blue out of the wood grain so I turned it black and white. LYLE

The Thin Building

This is a very thin building. It is here in SLC. I think after the belt tightening that the banks have had to do they will all look like this. Actually it is just a front to impress investors. The building extends back at a 45d angle and I just got into the right position to make it look strange. LYLE

The Parthenon

I spent more time in Athens than any other port and visited the Parthenon on Acropolis (I always thought the Acropolis was the temple until I looked it up). I figured you would like the detail shot so I brought you to it like I first saw it. Bruce

JFK Aircraft Carrier

 We were steaming information with the JFK and I was on the Flag Bridge with my Kodak. I wish I had had a good camera back then. I probably took the two shoots below on the same day, Bruce
