Pic of the week game

[trevor]

Few years ago in Esquimalt...Pacific Ocean...man I miss that bike.

OK, I can get back in this week.

This was taken at the end of the road, just past a sign declaring it the southernmost point in Louisiana, but it's actually just the southernmost ROAD in Louisiana.



Here is where it was:




Hopefully there is no difficulty determining which is the official entry for the week.

Aug 1st, 2016...Two months after my heart surgery, (on medical leave from work).
Stopped for a few pics of my Trophy, at my favorite spot on Illinois' Fox River.
It was just after noon, but it was cloudy enough to mellow the harsh midday sun.

Awhh crap ! Outa focus.....

I like that picture Dave. Especially the way the red of your bike and the tree play off each other.
But we need to kill the bright lights in back, and lighten your bike and foreground.

Thanks Bob but a photo shop/editor I am not. Here is another one in better focus but I like the wider landscape view better.

Something like this:

The second pic was easier to work with. A little quick and sloppy, but it came out OK...
I would like to replace the sky, but that could be tricky.

Not sure what you had in mind for the sky but I thought I'd see what a change might look like. I only spent about five minutes on it but an additional twenty or so minutes would solve the gaps in the trees....... { Oops I see I used the wrong picture }

That front tire looks low.......

I?ve been sucking at this lately. I have a water pic that fits the bill, but I don?t love it. I may try to take one this week if things calm down at work and home. Hot weather means busy work days, then things fall behind at home....

I was thinking of clouds or something else interesting. Just thought a few fluffy white clouds would break up that big hunk of sky.

Tried a few different skies I had on my machine, but none of them matched well.
