 I am so STRESSED right now I don't even wanna talk about it. I couldn't open ANY of the raw files from the weekend, yesterday and today. I had just run some Dell Diagonostic program and then I go into my picture files and nothing opened. So...dumb me...I go to the MS on line and it says download NEF Codec or Nikon Professional Picture Viewer for umpteen dollars and 97 cents. So I download the free codec and nothing happens. SO I get crazy and do a system restore. And I still cannot open the files. SO the read error message comes up and I pick choose from list of programs and somehow the MS window live is showing and not MS Raw Picture viewer. So I changed it and now I can see the files. Whew!

I took about five different set ups on three different days involving an ubmrella or more. I chose this one because of the great colors. Sorry about the blue not matching in both panels, out door light issues, but the red, for me, really makes up for it. Enjoy.

Post: Camera raw....yadda yadda ...same old basic editing stuff...spot edit dust....and NO CROP! Can you imagine. My software even asked if I was feeling OK. I am now. Time to eat and watch YT. Later!

Red-Blue-Green tri-colour scheme is simple but highly effective in this composition. The tones are brilliant and the contrasts not only of hue but of semi-straight curves against the curled ivy. Very nice, definitely eyecatching.
