Nothing interesting happening in my life, so this is a photo post.<\/p>\n

I think this is my favorite so far of all my photoshopped shots. Besides being a beautiful shot on its own, the colorizing really makes the people stand out… I dunno. This looks *amazing* full-size. I think it would have been a lot less effective if there were fewer ripples in the puddle… dunno.
\n<\/p>\n

This one is much more effective full-size. I was trying to emphasize the people… after all, we’re all small compared to other stuff, but it’s people that really make the world what it is. Hopefully that kinda comes across.

I was taking pictures today and Greg commented on how the things that I picked out as “important” in a picture were unusual. For example, in a picture of a parking lot, I picked out the striped gate-thingies that let cars in and out as the thing I would highlight in a picture. I don’t know why they stood out to me, exactly… they just seemed like the right thing to emphasize.
\nUnfortunately, both shots of it came out blurry, so I guess we’ll never know… but I was reminded of the conversation as I was looking over the second photo. It now occurs to me that it’s rather unusual to choose to highlight the people over everything else in the photo. As I was doing it, however, they were the natural choice.
\nHmmm…<\/p>\n

I really need to make an “art” section of my site for all these photoshops (so I can post them bigger) and my photos from photo classes. Meh.<\/p>\n

The world is full of beauty. I’m learning to take time when I’m out walking to really take in everything and enjoy it… and hopefully capture some of it in a photo.
