Sometimes I cannot believe how many photos I take! I try walking around without my camera but then something is there and I have to take a photo!
For example, this portrait shot - Diana and I entered a small deli and I saw this gentleman sitting there. After several attempts to shake off the "Take a photo" voice, I succumbed and walked back to the truck and got my camera. I'm glad I did.
We took advantage of a bit of decent weather and went out to Antelope Island yesterday morning. Antelope, buffalo, meadowlarks, horned larks, dusky flycatcher, long-billed curlew, chukar partridge - were among the nature that we saw . Of course, the wide open spaces with the wind blowing through were very calming and refreshing. I decided to look at these spaces with a slightly different view and see what I liked.

In this photo, the clouds were of primary attraction to me, with the ground being a supporting feature. I de-saturated the blue from the sky and darkened the entire photo. A bit of (over) sharpening brings out a detail that I like. However I am concerned that the color and shapes on the bottom conflict with the sky for the viewer's eye. So below is another view.

| After - What can one do with a beautiful view that looks the same as many other beautiful views? Play around with it is one option. |
