Very nice. ; Reminds me of my trips down to AC for the Miss America Pageant in the 80's (long story). ; Never did get to Ocean City though, wish I had.
a few years before AC lost the Miss America pageant to Vegas someone beaned the outgoing Miss America in the head with a beer bottle thrown from a roof top during the parade down the boardwalk. Ocean City has always been a more family friendly town and a pleasure to visit and good capture Tim
I didn't realize how code the original image was until yo posted up this newer version. ; Definitely much warmer now. ; Makes me yearn for Johnson's Popcorn and a slice of 'za
Like Ray, makes me yearn for warm Johnson carmel popcorn. ; Oh, yea, the warmth of the photo is good to. ; ; I didn't realize how close your photo was to this one of mine... Though I don't have the pier in the background, I do have a surfer and umbrella. ; The warmth was provided by the late afternoon sun in my case.
when i "added" the warmth, i just used the w/b the way the camera shot it... ; the first time around, i had manually set it off the white paint on the lifeguard stand but that seemed a bit too cold. ; nice color pop in the umbrella, scott.
here is one near sundown in Margate NJ. from 2004 with a sony f828 and Tim was with me and he had a little sony P an S. Well before TMIP was even a twinkle in Tim's eye [attachments posted prior to 4/27/2010 have been deleted by admin. be sure to link images to make sure they don't get removed]
Howie's comment makes me wonder if TMIP needs a forum for P&S shooters to chimp. ; The one thing I've heard people say when I tell them about TMIP is, "I only have a Point and Shoot" like it's some kind of Scarlett Letter. I'm hoping Pixelmania will help bring some more P&S photographers into the fold of the TMIP family
I think that would be a great idea, Ray. ; Especially as the manufacuturers create hybrid P&S cameras with more and more functionality people may want to upgrade to instead of a dSLR. I've been thinking about getting out the P&S I bought last year and using it for a period of time this fall in preparation for Pixelmania. ; I've gotten okay resutls with it but I know it can do better.
