Good evening.
3 great shots, amac
Nice effect. I know who's going to REALLY appreciate those train photos.
A long time ago you posted a treatise on using sepia, to which I added a bit.

Are you trying to get rid of me??
Ommm mahhh I'm telling!!!
the shark biscuit complaint dept opens 1st day of summer ...

Evening...yeah nah..he is just teething...just of Mooloolaba..
My photo??..nope, nope and nope..
he seems frustrated with the human packaging ...
go on, give him a bloody nibble ...
I took this photo to illustrate the song "Empty Tables, Empty Chairs" from the musical Les Miserables.

This one didn't need to be tinted in order to be sepia.
Photo taken around 1850 in New Canada, Minnesota territory.
Front Row Pierre Paul-Hus and wife Cecilia Paul - Blackbird

My Great grand parents and kids they are Métis, pronounced May tee.
A while ago I posted a photo of this painting of Abraham Lincoln that I saw at an antique store. Here’s how AI decided he could look.
Which one is the winner?
Third from the left top row strikes a strange resemblance to Rod Stewart LOL
Apparently the steampunk version since it snuck in there twice. This is what I meant to post.
Why you have that phone pointed at my face, dad?
Sunday afternoon football.
my daughter is a year into her 3rd rescue boxer. this one came with a $5K respiratory ailment that was cured after a week in doggie ICU. "lily" is now a devoted companion and vicious protector of her "mom", with a very playful personality.
During this busy time at work we've been bringing Kobe to the office every afternoon. The office staff are always asking about him and most of the customers are okay with him. We keep him in the cube my wife works in.
make the office smokers take him outside on his leash ...
I don't remember if I told you this before, but the Chinese high school students I used to teach when I came here used to adopt English first names, often names of famous people, and one student called himself Kobe. I don't know if he played basketball or not.
what's kobe's mix?
Kobe is a Pittie.
Morning.. it's a bit like "where is my food...the dish is only half full"..
To late I have died from starvation..
Drama Queen. LOL
I figured that would be one of the breeds ...
"serve me lowly human, and be quick about it ..."
They said Mini-Boxer and Staffordshire Terrier. I think there may be some French Bulldog in there as well.
I was going to guess some boxer with that face and the white fur on the chest ...

nice black and white effect with the black background.
These are outstanding!
Nice contrasting technique. The rose reminded me that there was a White Rose gas station across the road from my father's factory.

As with an earlier image, i began with a FULL COLOR ORIGINAL, CONVERTED IT TO SEPIA TONE, then, ADDED A FULL COLOR SKY with HARMONIOUS COLORS to the SEPIA TONE.
Very creative, very effective.
A recent trip to arboretum - not exactly sepia but one of my favorite pictures of the summer

Great shot!
This isn't sepia toned, it is nature's tones....

Taken last November (2023) in the Georgia mountains about hour north of Atlanta.
Really nice.
Super shot - colours, reflections, with a bridge adding interest.
my first thought was that picture would make a great puzzle. ugh, getting old sucks ...
An image that has it all; COMPOSITION, LINEAR PERSPECTIVE RULE OF THIRDS, COMPLIMENTARY COLORS, REPOUSSOIR EDGE, ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE, DEPTH OF FIELD, INTERESTING SUBJECT MATTER … one could well use this image to teach beginning photographers and graphic artists … "This is what a perfect picture looks like!"
Have I ever mentioned that I tend to analyze imagery?
... uh, huh?
Repoussoir (French: pushing back) is an object along the right or left foreground that directs the viewer's eye into the composition.
I guess I knew that, I just didn't know what it was called. now I just don't know how to pronounce it ...
Morning... currently I have a mum and bub brush tailed possum at mine and my brother's house..
She gets fed at both places and just walks along the fence...she disappeared for weeks and now we know why..
It was quite warm the other night and having to carry baby on her back would have been quite uncomfortable...
We feed her banana, apple and mandarins..which she loves licking the juice off her paws..
They also love rose buds, they mow them off with great gusto much to my Ukraine SIL displeasure..but she is the first one out feeding mum and bub...
Too cute.
I never saw a live possum, not even in a zoo, even though I have seen pear trees.

a silent light-footed approach and back from the bank in the shade, behind cover, or on the ground unseen. otherwise, no bites ...
Yup!

Looks good enough to eat, but I guess you didn't. LOL
I could possibly catch him several times; I could only eat him once.
my cousins and I were taught how to catch them around my grandfather's ranch back in the 60's by his NA ranch foreman. a long stick, some line, a hook, and a worm in south park colorado. pan-fried in cornmeal that night for the family table.
It's a shame your lake has so few fish you have to buy the fish you might want to eat. There never was a shortage of bass in the lake my chalet was on, and we never ate THAT many of them that it would even reduce their population. I have absolutely no criticism of your pleasure in catching them, I just think that's only half of the enjoyment you could have had from them.
Calling this one. Thanks to all.
