To Angshu: Sticks on a tipi
Hi Angshuman, the sticks inside a tipi are called "lodge poles." Most regular tipi users call their tipis "lodges" too!

Re: The difference between Art and Reality

Thanks Clark!
Thanks for the workshop. Here's the good news: for my upcoming birthday, my wife is getting me a new Canon 30D! This Sony has been a great camera--but noisy.
Thanks again!

Hi Don,
Good to hear from you! I converted this image from color. And since it had slight motion blur, I found a "trick" that I use is to make the outside parts VERY blurry with motion blur, so...

Hi David,
Thanks for your comments! I used a flash because I wanted some texture from the post, which is actually quite close to me. The stormy sky made it quite dark for my small aperture, so the...

Hi Charles,
Thanks for the comments. It's good to have you back!
For this image, I simply put the camera on Manual, and then fiddled with the exposure until it looked good. Magic!
Thanks,

Hi Deeb! I sure love your comments.
The off level waterline is due to the fact that I'm not shooting straight on to this shoreline. In effect the trees at left are closer than the trees at right....

Hi Deeb,
Actually, my landscape composition has improved greatly after studying YOUR photos, especially of the Timp area and its lakes.
