Color in the Sunset Sky...



When I lived in Mammoth Lakes California, in the 
Eastern Sierras, I was privy to lot's of glorious sunsets...
and clouds.

Cloud Series...


This glorious cloud is a combination of a thundercloud forming and the smoke from a nearby fire.


A silver lining to any forest fire is the spectacular
cloud formations and colors.


This one isn't from a fire...just a glorious sunset!



A lenticular cloud...known in Mammoth
as a Sierra Wave.




I'd love to hear what you think about these!

Can you see any of them framed as a single art piece?

Thanks for visiting and commenting!!!

South Africa...in B&W...




Thought I'd play around a bit with my Africa photos in B&W...


Ichabod Crane I presume?


"Huh?  D'you say somethin'?"


Double Trouble...


"I might not be King of the Jungle...
But you can call me Emperor..."


"Dumbo ain't got nothin' on me..."


A two-fer


"If I'm not Queen of the Jungle...
Just call me Princess..."


It's a Family Affair


"Rest assured," said Hercule Poirot.
"I am the best."
Agatha Christie 


"Really...I'm not crying...it's this darned dust in my eye..."

A Retrospective...



Sooo...
I've been experimenting with old photos,
new processing!!!




Playing with desaturation of color and some selective coloring...


A pensive moment...using a processing preset...


Remembering Daisy...RIP...
(Kelly's alive and well!)


Playing with grain...vignette...etc...



Playing with crop, shadows and light...



Going spooky!!!
