Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Don - 12-04-2024 One of the interesting buildings seen on our trip. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Luv2shoot - 12-04-2024 Don, that is an impressive structure. The architecture is extensive in the details.  Wowsers, do you know what the purpose of this building was? I have a building with some red in it, but it is nowhere near as in good shape as your pristine, prestigious-looking structure. For our photo club's annual Christmas party, we are invited to share 10 new photos that will be projected in a loop on a large TV screen. In the past, we had so few members that we were asked to submit 20 photos. I must admit, it was difficult for me to find 20 that I felt comfortable sharing. So, in the next two weeks, I will share with you the ones that have made the cut, starting with this wicked wagon. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Man From Ironbark - 12-04-2024 Don's place is a colourful palace compared to Lorell's rustic shed. Don's palace is a leaning palace. Probably just a sbapshot really. A lot of my snapshots get a lean to them. Lorell's shed and wagon is serendipitous and well processed. I want to see what's inside that door. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Don - 12-04-2024 Yeah, Peter, I seem to have issues with leaning images. I promise, I'll try not to post anymore leaning buildings or windmills. Lorell - that is a stunning photo. I really like the muted colors. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Man From Ironbark - 12-04-2024 I had to adjust the horizon level in almost all of the shots I took on the wetland near my house a couple of days ago. It is quite flat country and a long walk just to get near the water's edge. Then the birds are way out there. So all these images have been free rotated so the horizon is closer to level then the obligatory crop. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Dave - 12-05-2024 Fine images, Don and Lorell. Blue skies, clouds, land, water, and vegetation - you got them all, MFI. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Luv2shoot - 12-05-2024 Thanks all fir the comments. Peter, I had no idea that you had wetlands near you. Do you have a lot of mosquitoes then in your area? Seeing that it is Australia, I would imagine the mosquitoes to be double the size they are here in the states. Great clouds in your perfectly leveled images, Peter. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Man From Ironbark - 12-05-2024 Yes we get an army of mosquitoes and get a raft of mosquito borne diseases. Atound 70% of the local population have had Ross River Fever, including me and my family. There are some large mosquitoes but in the main they are small and vicious. The wetlands start about 1km from my house. They are internationally recognised as a Ramsar site due to international migratory birds that come here. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Rich - 12-05-2024 Don, Wow, very impressive building! Lorell, that is one amazing wagon! Coated with an unknown, unmentionable substance! Peter a nice bird hangout. Looks a bit dry there. RE: Wednesday, Dec 4, 2024 - Man From Ironbark - 12-05-2024 Yes Rich. Though we have had above average rainfall this past year, it always looks dry here and the water in the swamp has dramatically shrunk despite the rainfall. This be due to the extrtemely high evaporation rate we have here.
