So, I got a new camera and went up to Vedauwoo to play with it. Took some shots in sepia tones for that "old west" look.
(I had some problems uploading soem of them to the user galleries, so some of the other cool ones are to come later.)
I found this "knob" sticking out of the ground off in the trees:
Here is the Nautalus with some climbers on top, taken at a considerable distance (was really overcast that day and snow was starting to come in...)
Same area in sepia:

Here is a dead tree I came accross hiking around:
Old fence:
This last one is of Aimes Monument near Vedauwoo. I've seen it a hundred times from a distance, but never drove right up to it. I had no idea how big it was, so I put my car in the photo for scale. It was built in the 1870's and it marks the highest point on the old Union Pacific Railroad.
I want to climb it.

Two manky bolts on the SW corner plus slings above the face in the picture... it goes free!

Cool pics. Does anyone know anything about hand-tinting sepia pictures? I've had a hankering to photoshop ski and misc winter pictures to get a sepia or maybe just b/w look, print them out and then paint on top of them for some time now. I'm thinking dayglo acrylics rather than that pale stuff though...
Any artists out there?Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.
