| RabidSnaps The wife and I went to the Dallas Arboretum today for their Pumpkin Fest (massively crowded!). We invited my wife's stepmom and sister-n-law and nephew to go with us....so, of course, the rest of the family invited themselves along. Rah. What a fun day of over-opinionated in-law time! I did manage to get a good shot or two (I think, at least):

| BEHOLD....THE POWER OF PHOTOSHOP!!! (read with thundering Thor-voice) The color version wasn't all that inspiring. After flipping it to B&W...I'm very tempted to go back and play with the other two from the same plant. Textures are so much fun to try to capture!

| Great colors! Also good Bee shots, very nice! B&W is alot of fun to work with, it really shows textures and contrasts far better than color, well done!

| The other two leaf-shots...original image, plus B&W with some brightness/contrast editing (I like my B&W's with a bit higher contrast and lower brightness):

| What a little cutie, RA! Did you get any pics of the old DeGolyer house while you were there? It really is a lovely place. |
