Hi dpc.
Is that where you sit and think!
Strange place for an easy chair.
Nice shots too.

Cheers, Graham.

Thanks, Graham! I find I get into less trouble the less I think. I was wondering why that bench seat was there. It was't this past winter. Strange! Well, maybe not so strange. You come across odd things out here.

Rain clouds threatening...

I'd posted a similar picture a couple of weeks ago but like this one much better so I removed the first one. There's a fair bit of grain in either iteration but that's intentional. I ran the file through DxO's FilmPack 5 analog simulation programme. I started taking pictures decades ago with an old Zeiss Ikon Contaflex Beta and have digitized many files from that and from a Canon AE-1. I like the look, including the grain. This was reinforced for me recently when I looked at some pictures my granddaughter took with her old Pentax 645 medium format film camera (she doesn't do any digital even though she's only 17). I suppose doing analog simulation on a digital file seems a bit anachronistic, even pointless, but I sometimes like replicating the look. As far as this picture is concerned, I think I like the black and white one better but I like them both.

I like it. Reminds me of home.

Not sure if this is rural or suburban. It is near my home where acres of forest are being flattened for new homes.

Shot with EOS-M and EF-M 11-22mm. I typically don't do much post-processing but this one is an exception. A new experiment.
