Nature pics - part two

Here's a nice looking scene with bamboo on the side of a pond. Some people say that a great photographer should have the eye for beauty - maybe similar to how a cinematographer sees things. I'm not sure I'm there yet... but I hope my eyes can catch some beauties in the middle of the Metro... and show that there are spots of paradise in the city... if only people take the time out from their busy schedule to notice these.

More not so picture-perfect experiments

Ok - it seems that I am limited in what I can enter in this site - either that or I've not yet discovered how to do what I want to do, which is namely publish more than one picture in one article. So for now, it seems that I've got to place these pictures in separate articles.

That said, here's my experiment with monotones. Though I started out with a colored picture, I later changed its color mixture with your usual Microsoft picture editor. This here is my son, Bryce - in profile, holding a gun (not a real one, of course - just an airsoft version). The picture's graininess was an offshoot of the experiment, but rather than clean it up - I felt that it left a nice effect.
