Calavera > 7/26... I was surprised at the response to this shot.   I tried to convey the sadness that such a beautiful beast must have in carrying "tourists" around all day...At the same time, his handlers actually seemed sadder...but I wasn't fast enough to capture this.  The elephant's look...seemed to convey a sentiment that we all feel..."it could be worse"...This elephant was the first and last thing I saw at the Fair...it seemed as if he didn't want to be there.
Calavera > My Aunt Irene passed away today...one of the sweetest people I will ever know.  I'm really going to miss her
Calavera > I let out a long whistle when I came upon this Fall scene in Montreal...the warm colors just had the look of a painting
Calavera > Turner and Constable...these English painters pushed me to this shot of a lake in the Montreal Botanical Gardens.
Calavera > Some PS fun with Invert and Colorizing for this Cactus shot.
Calavera > Here's a macro of a tropical plant (unknown...to me)  Nice light hitting the soft petals made for a nice shot
Calavera > If you look close at these succulents, you can catch the last of the morning dew drops.
Calavera > This was a casting on the side of a fountain in Montreal...while photography had not yet been invented in the 1600's, I kind of saw this guy as a French/Canadien Gabby Hayes...took a while to get the old timey feel of the shot but it comes close
Calavera > I've tried this shot a couple of ways, but this one is my favorite, I just like the ines and the soft tones...its a very relaxing shot (to me)
I let out a long whistle when I came upon this Fall scene in Montreal...the warm colors just had the look of a painting
