Glenn, All of my recent pic posts have been done with either my cell phone or an old Canon Powershot (lousy 2 megapixels). My "good" camera literally hit the pavement a few weeks ago. Household politics/finances being what they are, I'll (er, *we'll*) likely get a new camera the moment my wife realizes the pics she'd like to print look like shit. ("Yeah, that's too bad honey. You know a new camera isn't really that expensive these days. I could probably fix these if they'd been taken on a newer camera..." Etc.) Anyway, necessity is the mother of invention, so I've found myself working more with B&W because I'm not really happy with most of the color shots I've been getting. Thanks for the kind words!
Well, between those two "low-class" gizmos, you're getting some good results. You know, this guy named Pogue who writes a techie column for the N Y Times has been on a tear for several years saying that whole "higher the pixel" business means squat. Your stuff is proof of that.
These new B&W's are outstanding. So, did you get a new camera or what?
ReplyDeleteA beautiful picture, and a beautiful moment.
ReplyDeleteI love this park!
ReplyDeleteThe experience of walking above the water is open to everybody - that's very democratic.
Wonderful photo!
Glenn,
