Wednesday, May 10th, 2023 - Rich - 05-10-2023
Greetings all!
Looking through some travel photos and ran across this one. Talen in Myrtle Beach, SC at a sculpture park. As I was processing this I thought, gee, this would make a great place to have a wedding. Then the photographer in me took over and said, well.....maybe not. The shadows would be a nightmare to handle. The contrast too! You can see my depth of focus (DOF) is really shallow.

Happy Hump Day everyone.
Well done on that photo, Rich
Apologies for my absence that past couple of days days; I ate something that caused unpleasant intestinal distress - I'm guessing it was some left-over blue cheese that passed its "safe to consume" date.
Consequently, my photo outings have been limited, so here's one from 4 days ago...

Hi boys. Good to see you both this morning. Thanks for the lovely images.
I did not make it to swim this morning, I had a tough night with the dog who must have had an upset stomach. I am a little worried about her. I ended up falling to sleep at around five and then getting up to wash some carpeting. Yep, it was one of those nights. So, I think there is a nap just around the corner after I finish posting my addition to your lovely park setting, Rich, and a pretty close-up of the rosy bougainvilleas, Dave. DAve, sounds like you spent a lot of time on the couch the last few days. Glad that you are feeling better.
I think that would be a beautiful setting for a wedding, Rich. And I bet it is busy on the weekends. The photo from the park where I took this shot is a favorite for wedding shots. To use the gardens you have to reserve a time at the Parks and Rec office that is adjacent to the park. The park is that busy with bridal parties. I have even stolen some shots of the happy couple.
Have a good day all. I think I will go see what SCOTT KELBY's GRID topic is today. Maybe I will learn something or be inspired.

Lorell. Sorry about your tough night. I hope your beloved dog is OK. Our Pippin is definitely in old age, and he's been diagnosed with a failing heart. So each moment spent with him now is special.
Very nice photo. You compose or crop your photos exceptionally well - your CO is always in an ideal spot.
Thanks for mentioning Scott Kelby; I'll have to Google his name + GRID to see what that's about - it sounds like maybe he has a website and posts advice and/or tutorials on different topics.
I didn't get much couch time; spent more time on the porcelain throne than on the couch.
Gotta run - I need to get back into walking more than I've managed lately, plus I want to redeem a $75 scratcher winner.
