Not on the level of awesome that the rest of these pictures are on but this was taken back home when I found a patch of wild roses in the hay field

I took this at the beach a few weeks ago.

Abingdon, Va is one of my favorite places. It's not far from Bristol. I like to ride the Virginia Creeper trail on my bike. A beautiful ride.

I found the link to the Virginia Creeper trail. Seems to be a rail trail - perhaps an old NS line.

I took three shots with the same aperture but different shutter speeds[this is called bracketing] then merged them in PS. With film I could have dodged and burned areas during development to get this effect.

HD?!!??!!

I tried it the same technique but it looked like

for me..not sure but It looked like a black and white picture...I think I have to adjust something.

I'll try it again when I'm on break.

Thanks, and actually, yes, they do. The peasants here like to have their meadows look like lawns. And the sheep here also like that in winter time.

So I'll see if I can get out there tomorrow again and redo the same scenario but now with half a foot of snow cover.

Beautiful. I am hoping I can find the ice storms pictures from a few years ago.

Somehow I missed these......Gorgeous!!! Great color.

I also love the frosty shots! I doubt I will see any snow this year.

Yes, it is an old rail trail. Some of the tressels we ride over are amazing.

I find the best results when I bracket 1/2 steps as long as the exposure is close, but on this one, I believe I bracketed by 1.5 steps.
