Post your ALTERED REALITY photos
I have dabbled a bit in starting with my photo and altering it in software.
The 5 photos below have all been altered in Microsoft Word (yes you can do that in Word!!!)
You don't need expensive software or be an expert in photoshop to create your own unique artwork.
Post your creative works in this thread.127Jul 27, 2017 -
Argentina and Uruguay
I'm on a business trip to Argentina, Chile, and Peru. Weather the first days was cold and rainy, but yesterday was quite nice. Sunny, cool, with a wonderful blue hour. I took the ferry from Buenos Aires to Colonia del Sacramento in Uruguay. It is an old colonial town built in the 1600's with a walled town center. Uruguay is super safe, many people speak English, and the low population mean many areas have lots of nature. The ferry takes an hour. It's a high speed catamaran. I noticed on the way back that the Ferries are Danish - probably the ferries that crossed the Oresund before the bridge was built. After I got back to Beunos Aires, I took a walk through Puerto Madera and caught some shots during the blue hour and later.
All were shot with the EM1.2 and O12-40. Long exposures were handheld up to 8 seconds.

Emergence ...
I couldn’t make it out at first, it looked so oddly shaped, but after a few shots – so I could see closer – it became apparent it was a form of Shield-bug, in the midst of a rarely observed transition.
They outgrow their shell, exoskeleton actually, and periodically have to moult – usually there is a split along the back through which the new form pushes out. A very dangerous time for them, being immobile for the duration and soft, vulnerable – to some degree held back by the tight fit of the old skin.19Aug 5, 2017 -
Hummingbirds with the Pana-Leica 100-400 (image heavy)
I've seen a number of hummingbirds lately, and fortunately I've had my long lens along on a couple of occasions. I know that small sensors and slow lenses aren't supposed to take bird photos, but I went ahead and did it anyway. I've posted some of these in the "Share Birds" thread, but since they keep showing up in my yard, it's probably time to give them a dedicated thread. We planted a number of Agastache plants (nicknamed "Hummingbird Mint") over the last couple of years, and this year especially, it seems to be bringing them in. These are from a few days over the last month or two:

Post your National Park photos
Some of us are lucky enough to live near one, but everyone travels, and National Parks are beautiful places for some snapping.
So let's see some National Parks. (Don't forget to name the park in your post.)148Jul 13, 2016
