I had to do something to take my mind off of all that flesh on the beach (kidding, they're great even if they are tests). So I went back to a file from a few years ago that had frustrated me. I could never get the sky to hold. This is far from perfect, but represents a lesson for me to go back to old files from time to time, since as software improves and I get more comfortable with it, new things can happen.

Hello TRSmith,
It's a beautiful landscape. The place looks peaceful and quiet. I post a cityscape image from Trondheim in Norway. It's really a nice Nordic place. Best regards, Leica 77 :)

Tim - quite true, with improving PP skills some photos deserve being revisited. Nice example with this landscape (but where's the flesh? :confused::D)

Leica 77 - nice treatment on your last posted photos, i especially like the ones featured on posts #259 & 260. Interesting in-depth "two-window" composition with the car... the youngster riding art is a treat, too.

Thanks Corlan. And L77, where do you live? It's a bit hard to tell since you post images from all over the world. I have always felt a certain draw to the Nordic countries but have never been.

Nice photo from Trondheim, L77. One of the Norwegian cities that don't make me homesick. It always rains when I go there...

Was on my way from several places to several other places most of the day to day, so I grabbed a few snaps. Here's one :)

Very nice... and a place I love to visit when Jorgen's not there (just to keep the rain away, of course:D)

Wow. It's working now, Tim. Nice.

Even More Fun Pictures with Nikon. Here is an image for our vintage automobile enthusiasts. Recorded in Oslo, Norway. Adobe Photoshop. Thank you for looking. Leica 77 :)

Love that Volvo. It's from Norsk Folkemuseum, isn't it? The model, Volvo Duett, was the wagon version of the very popular Volvo PV. They continued to make the Duett until 1969, long after the design was obsoleted by subsequent models (Amazon and 145), but it was a real workhorse and popular among owners of small businesses.

Hello Lloyd,
Many thanks for your kind comments, as always! It's worth a trip to visit this quaint Nordic town, even for a day (without Jorgen) :). Best wishes, Leica 77 :)

Many thanks for your positive feedback, Jorgen and viablex1! Yes, you are absolutely correct, "Professor Jorgen", that the red Volvo wagon is at the Norsk Folkemuseum. Here is a side view of the Volvo in full color. I suppose it is like a precursor to the contemporary SUVs and RUVs, in some ways. Best wishes, Leica 77 :)

Just plain beautiful, L77. Wonderful color, classic vehicle.

From the river.

D80 with 70-300 ED @ 300mm and f/5.6

Hello Jorgen,
It is a wonderful image, as usual! Some years back, I took a ride on a similar narrow boat up the Mekong River. As I recall, it had a Chevy V8 engine mounted at the stern of the boat. Best regards, Leica 77 :)
