Taken on vacation trips
Turning my attention from the Lowry, I caught sight of this man bringing his child out for a walk (and taking pictures of him presumably). Seeing a photo-opportunity myself, I took a quick snap of him just as he was about to adjust his son’s jacket. I like the strong pattern and framing formed by the suspension bridge, which I have further enhanced here with a solarization filter.
A different viewpoint of the same cacti display I took at the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow, UK. I like the details of this shot so much that I have set this as my Windows wallpaper graphic for now 🙂
How can a visit to Scotland go without a trip to the famed scenic Lochs? During my visit last month, we paid a various viewpoints along scenic Loch Lomond. Stopping at Tarbet after lunch, I was impressed by the still waters contrasting with the brightly lit cruise ferries. I have metered this shot using the bright white areas of the ferries to achieve a nice colour and lighting contrast in the final shot.
