He was a film photographer, and on the backs of many of his photos are inscribed the camera settings. Unfortunately, he didn't note the locations on most. They were ghost towns, and other travels, he took with family. I'm making my husband search his "memory banks" to see how many he can remember, so we can make note of it for our family. I'm without a decent camera, so it may be a long while until I get back to trying a challenge. I'm putting a nice one on my Christmas wish list though! :)Nita Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02763053063410716010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-80478973567870308012013-10-16T21:14:38.575-04:002013-10-16T21:14:38.575-04:00All three are wonderful, but the first is outstand...All three are wonderful, but the first is outstandingClickNCamerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775320977344237076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-25039901445773664782013-10-14T07:58:12.467-04:002013-10-14T07:58:12.467-04:00Thanks for linking me Donna.

I love the contrast...I keep going back to look at it to see why is works so well. I never know where to cut my photo off. I would have been trying to show the whole fork and a straight on shot of the berry. I have a lot to learn. And an artist will want to paint the photo of the fruit. Beautiful!
