Hi Folks:

Got out early this morning and enjoyed watching 2 Hummers charging each other and having a great old time. Of course I couldn't capture their antics together, however, I shot them separately and also took a picture of the sunny sky and made up my own Dogfight, and did a Watercolor.


Also wanted to give CS4 a test run, and it was different enough to have me scratching my end zone at times.


CC's appreciated and always welcome.

Hi Folks:

I had wanted to post the original color creation from the 3 photos, but playing around with a new program I had tried Sepia without saving the original . . . Shame on me, probably need a lot of bail money like the speeder's in Florida do now :eek::eek::eek:

Uncle Gus :o:o:o

Hi Glen; From CS3, and many more changes than from CS2 to CS3. Bridge & ACR 5.0 are great, but was surprised that ACR 5 doesn't have the rule of thirds grid with crop like Lightroom2 does. I like it so far.

Best regards

Gus
