Hi John - Will you frame and display these together? I am drawn to #141 because it shows more detail but I like them both! :) It is interesting how you highlighted the brown but treated the rest in monotones. :)

Hi Sandy,

I hadn't thought about framing them together but would perhaps add a third variation if I did. Thanks for commenting.

Sandy,

I've been thinking about your suggestion of framing a few of the Phoenix shots together and have been looking for a third which would be a little bit different from the other two. I thought this might be a viable option, what do you think? Printed on the same Canson Platine paper.

Hi John - I really like the way this one sets up with her facing toward the audience! And the coloration of her feathers - Wow. I'm also glad you included the skin tone to complement the other two photos. It is a wonderful addition to the group - in my humble estimation!

Hi Sandy,

I'm glad you like it, I'll try a triptych format.

This print is more of a salute to a wonderful summer and an expected good continued year. Printed on Moab 11" x 17".

John, I love this image even though I'm looking at only on a screen, not a large print. You've captured a lot of fun and laughter!

Hi Bruce,

It was a merry scene that was one of many highlights of the summer, thanks for commenting.

The scene does look like fun! I like the reflections in the water too. :)

I enjoy watching sea gulls. You definitely caught a good one of this fellow! I also like the print with the added border.

Hi Sandy,

Yes, the disliked gull, always trying to cozy up to us, seeming to want our acceptance yet always behaving so crudely :) . Thanks for commenting.

I thought I'd throw in a seasonal theme within my Print 52 series.

Printed on single weight matte paper, 8.5" x 11.0".

I was photographing a Halloween themed 5K race which started around 7:30 PM and the starting line was within a sort of urban box canyon of buildings, some were lit, some weren't. So my camera settings were based on available light (I also used manual flash), shutter speed (1/200s) to freeze the runners, and amount of noise (ISO 1600) I was willing to live with for the shot. During the editing stage I opened up the shadows quite a bit.

This is a fun image, a night time 5k Hallowe'en race! From my perspective, your choice of shutter speed, etc. worked well.
