I took 1000 pictures at least when I was in Duluth Monday thru Tuesday…it will take me a little bit of time to look through them all to share. In the mean time, here are  a few teasers. Lets just say that my time in Duluth was nothing short of spectacular and beautiful beyond words! God is good!

I have always loved this shot of Duncan. He played for hours outside with the chalk that day. He made a rocket ship that he would act out all the processes before take off, while in space and at it’s landing. It was awesome!

Another Scene off of HWY 23

I think it is actually one that you can barely see when driving this way since usually watching the road in front of you is more important. In any case, when I went to town last Wednesday I noticed that through the trees that there were cows and for some reason…I like them. There, I said it. I like to look at them and just the same I like to eat them…

Hmmm. Anyway, on my way to town today I stopped and ran across the ditch and snapped these shots of the cows…and their field. Again with the color ops right now, my eyes are wide open for photographic opportunities. Now if the rain and wind would subside I would be in high heaven!IMG_3723 copy IMG_3661 copy IMG_3674 copy IMG_3678 copy IMG_3683 copy IMG_3688 copy IMG_3698 copy IMG_3704 IMG_3719 copyI bet ya’all  didn’t know that these lovely cows and view were here, or did you?

So, I like cows alright!

A Little Editing Goes a Long Way

I still love what a little minor editing can do for a picture. Here is the Straight Out Of Camera shot (SOOC). Not terrible, but why not brighten it up a little.IMG_3491 sooc Honestly, all I did was up the levels a little bit and it brightened it up. Then I did a little bit of my Burn tool and darkened up the pumpkin leaves. Really minor, but I thought it made it nice!IMG_3491
