I never got stupid enough to get a bad one.
(as opposed to a bad Hi)Ya know what I meant about being there....... If those low clouds never broke open and let a patch of light through, there would have been no photo. That's what made the image work.
I shot virtually everything with my camera on the tripod. Reasons why can be described as technical, but also as practical. If I compose an image though the viewfinder, with the camera on a tripod, I could change the shutter speed settings or lens settings and my viewpoint would always be exactly the same for each shot.
Without using a tripod, you will raise up and hold the camera differently every time you-shoot the subject.

Wooden Bathtub.
I drew up a plan to make something like that when I was 21 and heavily sedated.Wooden Bathtub.
I was thinking about removing my old tub and framing in a larger space to do something like that................ Ok, OK, not zactly like that.Pretty neat.
I'm thinking it is not really wood. Maybe the veneer is but not the whole tub.
What kind of finish would be on that?

Found this slide in a parking lot by the carpet store. The image is local and the trees on that off shore island had all lost their foliage 20 years ago.
Anyone want to remove the scratches from the image for me? This might be slightly beyond my capabilities.
I'll pay you a dollar.

OK, yur all off the hook. I'm saving the dollar for myself.
I've never tried to clean up an old damaged image that has been laying in wet gravel and run over by a car a few times. The slide has pin holes and dents in it, plus the obvious dirt and grime.
I put the slide on my scanner to see if it was as bad as I thought................ it is.
I then decided to give this slide a go and test my patience. I've cleaned up a small portion of the sky and concentrated most of my efforts on the easier parts like the long rock the lighthouse is on, and the rocks and waves below.
...the rest of the sky and the lighthouse is the hardest part and I am not sure if I really want go permanently cross eyed trying to complete the rest of this experiment. The water and rocks were monotonous, but not really all that hard to pull off. I was just curious if a slide this bad had any value.
What I don't know is when the image was taken, what brand of film this is, nor who took it, or how it ended up in a parking lot behind a carpet store. I have photos taken from this same vantage point, but the trees have been totally bare for more than a decade.
To the left and right of the lighthouse, there are other buildings................ this photo is really old. I don't ever recall other buildings next to this lighthouse and I've lived here all my life.

Man you ruined my image of the picture. I thought it was snowing like it is here right now.

thats a sure sign of the end of the world
Yes, but being the environmentalist that I am, I'm trying my hardest to stop that from happening.
Here's version 3. I decided that my small correction brush wasn't working fast enough for the sky, so I used a 1/2" nap lambs wool roller.
I can't do much more until I can find an old photo of the light house with the additional building on it. I can faintly make out a couple of telephone or flag poles. Wow, all this and now I don't know if I can fake the buildings well enough to be believed. Oh well, it been a real fun one to play with.

I'm thinking I probably can't fix this one.
Yup! That is kind of what it looks like out right now here. I'm beginning to hate winter.

I'm way pass Beginning Daris .
I'm running out of room to put the snow. I throw it up on the piles and it falls back down. Here are a couple of pictures. The one is showing how far out into the street the snow berm is. The street sure seems to be a lot narrower especially when meeting someone else. We got about 5" of the crap last night and 3-4 the night before.
Got a couple of a friends dog from down the street also.

Missed the main one. Where you see the snow dug out is where I put my trash cans for pick up.

Wow, winter just won't go away. Not so bad here. Just rain, drizzle and wind. The heavy rains all went way south into California causing lots of problems.
Cold, ice and snow here. Wind chill -25 to -30. Actual high was 7. Low tonight -2. Still expecting another 2-5 inches of snow tonight. And this is friggin March.
All the green on here is snow.
