I'm Getting Thirsty

I was reminded, after this post went up, that it was Hemingway's birthday on July 21. So an alternate title for this post could be: 'Happy Birthday Papa.'

Sawdust Morning

It's a weekday morning and the crowds haven't arrived. Don't worry they will.

The Festival of Arts, which was yesterday's posting, generally doesn't get busy until after 5PM on the weekdays. The Sawdust Arts and Crafts Festival will start getting busy as early as Noon on weekdays and even earlier on the weekends.

The Sawdust is not an easy shoot. There is color everywhere. Nothing is aligned with anything else. And the light, it's either in your face or missing altogether. The Sawdust is a much better place to shoot when it's busy. People. Kids. Crowds. That makes for opportunities around every corner. And there are plenty of corners.

I've never photographed the Sawdust at night. Don't know why but maybe I should. Like real soon. O.K. tomorrow will do. Can't rush these thing.

Didn't edit this photo much. Just a twitch on the exposure.

I No Need No Stinking HDR

That's right I recovered the shadows with sight over-exposure and the use of Lightroom 4 RAW editor. The highlights were brought back to where they belong with Lightroom 4 RAW editor.

You like Ms Green Face? It wasn't just me. Anytime someone started taking photos of the painter she would cover her face. No big deal but it did add some humor to an otherwise boring morning.
