Shameless request...
 

I just took what I consider to be my best color shot yet. It made Explore on Flickr. If it gets lot's of visits It'll go up in ranking. (follow the link and look at it in large) Thanks for looking.

I doubt this'd help gain you any better exposure, but... I'll do what I can. (mind if I re-feature it elsewhere?)

Reloaded 10/06/2010 after correcting too much cyan casting. I think it's an improvement. I've always been a little hesitant to alter color casting in film because I like to say that the result doesn't involve Photoshoping other than dust removal and minor tonal adjustments. Since my enlarger has filters then I suppose I could do the same thing there. That makes it a legitimate adjustment in my mind. I'm not a film-snob just a film junkie.

(The above is just how I've come to refine how to feature a few of my flickr finds, contacts and friends; again, hope you hadn't minded.)

One question: I initially noticed the landscape's lighting to resemble it as a sunrise portraiture, but you tagged the photo as both "sunrise / sunset". It had to be one or the other, so at what time of day did you capture the above spectacle? (initially leaning towards you answering 'sunrise', but more likely than not, it might be a 'sunset' coming back as a reply.)

Nice job, Jehu.

Thanks for stopping by my photostream Jet. I didn't notice that the sunrise tag got put in there. Flickr lets you recycle your tags.

I remember this day very well. It was a rather spontaneous shoot on a Friday evening. Neither my daughter or I had anything planned so we grabbed some cameras and headed for Lake Tahoe. We decided on Bonsai Rock on the way up the mountain. My daughter forgot to charge her batteries so she shot film too. It was a fun time.

Absolutely stunning.

beautiful :thumbsup:

damn fine shot.........thank you.

very nice, the trees growing out of the rock is cool

stunning..it looks like its about to become a surreal painting and then it doesnt. Its reality is fetching to the eye...
