Using my digital camera I hope to convey in this journal the wonder and joy of living in a beautiful and mysterious land called New Zealand.

Picture Postcard
Via Flickr:
Processed with Snapseed. Comments welcome.
I like this new software but the real issue is knowing when to stop processing. It's easy to overdo an effect. The image sill needs to shine after the editing is done. My philosophy is to try and receate the mood of what I saw when I took the photo. Remember what the photographer sees and what the camera sees are 2 different things. Ansel Adams expressed the idea best when he said a photo is made not taken.

Fujifilm X10 has a 52 mm Circ. Polariser filter attached using a 39-52mm step up adaptor ring mounted on the lens. The adaptor uses some teflon tape around the thread to provide enough grip. See my other photos that illustrate this if you are interested.
