garden in a box

Linda wanted a small garden so I built a railed garden box out of cedar. We planted tomatoes, peppers and garlic in it. This is in our back yard in front of the living room windows.

Yellow Rose

Shooting with a homemade 2" extension tube for macro photography and a 24-120 lens. I had room lights on, a window uncovered beside the flower and two flashlights shining on it. Really hard to get enough light and nearly impossible to focus it, but I sure love the outcome. It is a very soft focus and I did almost nothing to the photo once I shot it. I had to shoot in aperture and +2 exposure value with ISO set at 640. I love playing with these things. LYLE

Shooting Ahead

This is a Pierce Arrow radiator cap. I was looking at some older photos that I took a little over a year ago and saw these three shots. I just had to try again to get them to work out. I had a friend hold a reflector/diffuser behind the subject to get rid of the busy backgrounds. LYLE

Running Ahead

This wonderful radiator cap is on a Ford. LYLE

Flying Lady

As I remember this ornament was on the radiator of a Packard. LYLE

Morgan 2

Here is another shot of the Morgan I didn't remove the color from the background as you can see. I think it improved the other one by leaps and bounds, it would probably help this one too. I decided to work on this one in Paintshop Pro X6 In thinking about upgrading to X9 and dropping Photoshop.

Morgan

This old Morgan was on display on the ships concourse. This is an HDR but all the colors around the car distracted from it so I turned everything but the car B&W.. I am finely getting around to working no my photos from the cruise we took at the end of September.
