A mixed bag of images for you today.  I like this landscape image of the lock and dam.  I’ve seen similar captures on touristy post cards so I thought I would try to duplicate the look.  It was such a gorgeous day at the river I really hated to leave.

Most of the dam doors were closed and the water was pretty choppy because of the wind so it made a nice looking scene.  Maybe I can sell these to some of the tourist shops. 🙂

There were a couple of guys who had climbed down on the rocks to fish in the waterway between the lock and the shore line.  I’ve seen lots of people fish there before.  I captured this image with the idea of converting it to black and white.

When I do a black and white conversion I like to capture a rough finish almost like an old film version with a bit of grain showing.  Some people do not like that look but I find it appealing on certain images.

Finally this image of a woman jogging along the walk way beside the river.  Jeanne and I were talking and I didn’t notice her coming to us until she was right there.  She went down to the lock and then turned around and headed back.  I shot several images of her as she jogged off into the sunset. 🙂

My original thought,  since I was shooting into the sun was to make a silhouette of the runner but the more I looked at the image I decided to do a grungy black and white.  Again some people do not like this type of image and I understand that.

Well that’s it for today.  Enjoy your Tuesday and thanks for stopping by.  Be careful.
