(22,378 posts)Towtruck, cops and wintry night can make for a serious light show.
This happened last year. The guy rammed my fence and created serious damage to me, but he was AOK.

I took this snapshot of my street this morning. I live on the sunny side of the street.

They do that every morning.

(still looks like a mutt to me, I like big dogs)

(17,077 posts)She got him as a pup last Spring. He comes to my door and barks for a dog biscuit every morning when she puts him out. Then he barks all day long at passers-by when he's out. When I go to bed at night, he barks goodnight from the other side of the wall. Wynn likes to bark.
I don't know why the video was so red. Shot w/Oly - I've only used the video a few times...

(14,885 posts)photo that I simply adore! Obviously the subject matter which is important, but the composition, the color (and treatment of color - yes two different things), and frankly the angle lead so much relevance/interpretation to your photo! OMG! And I simply LOVE that burst of red with a hint of yellow on the bottom left side of your photo! This is such a super cool photo!

(22,378 posts)Thanks Callalily, I think the crop had something to do with the final version. Have to go look at the full photo.
I think the crop is almost everything in my photos.
Edited to show you the full untouched version

(22,755 posts)about the photo... please forgive my impertinence but I couldn't help but play with it...
Mira
(22,378 posts)Where did you take it and what did you do? (or as my grandson said at age 2: What does it do when it doooos it?"
Honestly.
That washed out car now looks really crisp. I'm amazed. I think I need to leave Picasa behind...
who knows what could happen...
handmade34
(22,755 posts)better than what you thought!!!!
Mira
(22,378 posts)that you think I'm conceited?
Still don't know where you worked the magic. Photoshop?
I played with your photo in my 'Windows Photo Gallery' program...
my green snow:
Mira
(22,378 posts)not the green snow. I realize I must branch out from only using Picasa.
Thanks for everything. You are one of my (s)heros on many levels.

(42,770 posts)Here's a dumb question about cropping. For the best result, do you crop first? or tweak the picture first (i.e. adjusting
clarity, highlights, color, etc.).
When you crop, you are reducing the pixels within you entire resulting photo, correct?
