Our sunrise was very weirdly bright orange this morning when I got up. No photos to prove it, tho. Them birdies are looking pretty perky first thing in the morning. :) Really cool tones.

Very simple but effective photo! I do like those two little silhouettes!

Excellent like always dear Northy! :) Love the muted tones and the composition!

Not to worry about the sunrise - this is a fab shot. Wonderful comp and processing.

@psychographer thank you - i've taken to "mixing" the tones myself in LR :)

Hi Northy,

I accept your challenge, but I can't even begin to think of how to do it so I will have to do some studying of the concept first.

As for a challenge for you, I perused your album and you have done so MUCH and so WONDERFULLY I could hardly decide on a challenge. Then, I went through months of your album and realized you don't capture nature macro much, and that you do a LOT of LR photo editing.

So, what do you think of this for a challenge: capture a macro nature shot and post it without editing anything.
September 3rd, 2013  
@jyokota eek! ok - i can do wrap my mind around a macro nature shot... but not sure about the "no editing" thing... i guess i would shoot in jpg and i can do what i like with the in-camera settings? this would probably be VERY good practice for me :)
September 3rd, 2013  
Awesome minimalism!
September 3rd, 2013  
@northy -- yes, that's what I had in mind . . . use your camera settings to product your image instead of relying on post-production editing, which you seem to love and do well already.
September 3rd, 2013  
@jyokota ooooh! ok! definitely a challenge!

September 3rd, 2013  
Love the colors!

It took me a while to realise they are birds. I thought they were two old guys sitting in deckchairs :P

Really awesome. Love the processing and comp!

Really beautiful and very Kenna-like! and yes, things on an angle that I am trying to shoot drive me insane too! Thank God for the rotate tool, or we'd all be institutionalised, eh?
