This is a happy looking back porch! I am happy that you have a good place like this to kick back and relax at home. It certainly helps with keeping the creative juices flowing to have a place to restore yourself.

Day 2 Wheel-Arndale
by Valdo

Comment:
I somehow feel that I am looking at a reflection. This is a powerful but busy image. For me it is worth looking at for a while to see what all is scattered around in it. I seem to like looking at details in images like this for some reason. I sometimes find little areas that would make good images if taken out of context from the orig image.

It looks to me like you worked the contrast about right to get the doors to have at least a little detail for this image. I agree that a little darker, and dodge the area with the doors would be a little better if you have the tools for that.
Winter offers opportunities for this type photos not available in the summer or spring when the trees are all filled out with leaves.

I look fwd to seeing more images of this town with all it's history. The sepia looks great for this, giving it the dull overcast lighted winter time look.

I like the way the limbs over the water are mirrored, and the foggy morning look. I am sort of "on the fence" about the fence. I like it on it's own merit, and wonder if it should be so prominent in the image with the given title. I like the way the fog reduces the background putting attention on the subjects nearer the camera. This seems a very calming and still scene. Thanks for sharing your fav tree with all of us.

I like your river in color better too. The green reflections in the water make the place look very alive.

Iris

This is one of my fav types of flowers, the iris. This is an image that would have done very well in the recent "Shallow DOF" challenge. These are difficult to photograph well, and you have it just right with this image.

Very nice image. You have many things working in this image, and each seems to add to the effect.

I like the curve of the pine fitting into the arch of the birch limb near it. Did anyone else notice that if you cover most of the upper part of the birch that the trunk looks like a hand?
