Ducks

Half sized copy of original photograph (1280X960), squished in here as extra large. Default settings for each program involved in getting it in here.

Same photograph data as original above, plus some adjustments with VuePrint

Same photograph as the two previous ones, this time after I toyed with it in Lightroom2. The major change was to use the 'fill-in' light settings. It made the darker areas of the ducks show better; like lighting a small sun setting on their left as well as to their right. Well, kinda.



All this done from my little Olympus Digital Camera. Hey, I am not claiming professional results here. I wish!  Of course, if I had not been so... shy, I'd have taken that picture from closer-up to the ducks. I lost clarity and detail in the zooming. Taken with the default settings of the camera for the Scenery Sunset option.

Read my eyes

I feel detached from it all

Usually, when one hurts me or takes advantage of me outrageously, I will get mad or angry, or fighting-,ad or angry more like.

But I've been pretty calm and 'normal' oh darn.... so exhausted my head just dropped to the keuboat.. keuybaord, KEYBOARD! Du'h.

That means I'll be walking into walls on my way to bed, for at each blinking of the eyes, I fall asleep for a ... milli.... meta... whatever part of a second one wants to put there, and then awake, aware .... too aware...
