    Hope you guys don't mind me messing with your pictures but it's all I can do since I don't own a digital camera. :(

    Previously I did some work on a pic from Hayden and now I took the liberty of messin' up two of Sid and one of Silent Knight.

    FROM [​IMG] TO [​IMG]
    (Tried to enhance tonal contrast)


    FROM [​IMG] TO [​IMG]
    (Burned the sky, removed most of the colour cast and then worked on tonal and colour contrast)


    FROM [​IMG] TO [​IMG]
    (Colour contrast and brilliance/warmth to get rid of the midnight)

    ps: If you don't like what I do with the pics just pm me and have a go at me in a non gay manner. ;)

    Actually, the re-edit looks good - I have no problems with you reworking the shot. :)

    Last winter I was sidelined with a bad bout of pneumonia - and after a few weeks of cabin fever...decided to get my carcass out the door and do a bit of photography one morning.

    I happened to pick a morning where the temperature was just hovering around freezing - which crystalized the ground fog on the plants and trees.

    Taken near Lake Gibson (Thorold, Ontario).

    My favorite early-morning sunrise shot of Horseshoe Falls at Niagara - slightly upriver from the brink of the falls.

    Sometimes its both a blessing...and a curse.

    Although its great being close to the Falls for photography, the problem is everyone who comes to visit us wants me to take them around to all the cool photography spots.
