This week’s images are from the same roll of film as last week’s photos. Film cameras don’t record EXIF metadata so I rely on memory (mom gave me a digital recorder for my birthday to help me remember in the future). I’m pretty sure I was using my 75-150 zoom lens for these shots.
You can see the water moving in this photo. The rocks are on the shore and if you listen carefully you can hear the water lapping against the rocks. I do like the ‘colors’ and textures in this image.
And another view of reflections, ripples and rocks — this time a bit closer. Zoom lenses do come in handy when you can’t zoom with your feet.
I installed DigiKam on my system last night because I wanted more sophisticated photo management software and the DigiKam photo editor can work with 16 bit image files. I used DigiKam to massage the tones and sharpen both images and I’m pleased with the results. I’ll have more to say about DigiKam after I’ve learned more.


I can hear the water
Marvelous B&W and reflection for the day! I, too, can hear the water!! Have a wonderful weekend!

I’d be lost without my EXIF because I’m not disciplined enough to record the settings, I like the idea of the recorder!
I like the wild daisy’s at the water’s edge.
Black and white at its finest. These are very Zen-like.
BEAUTIFUL shots!
Awesome photos! Texture, tones, light, everything….
I can hear it, too. The motion is beautiful, with the little waves from each rock interacting with each other. I was also taken by the flowers. Lovely images.
I like the water movement in the top shot. I’d love to do some curves and contrast manipulation on the shot to see where it goes.
Beautiful shots! I agree that they really do stir my senses when I look at them.
The second shot of the rocks is truly wonderful, if I had to choose* – but, since I don’t, I like the first one, too! (*to put on the wall).
The first one really appeals to me. I like the movement of the water and the tenacity of the flowers next to the stones.
Love the textures and the tonal qualities of these shots. Beautiful work. genie
I like the heart shaped rock in the first photo, a little ways down from the top. The ripples are lovely.
Awesome moving water…
I especially like the motion and lighting in the top shots. Rocks attract me, too. You do fine work.
