I've been using this photo as my Windows desktop for several weeks, and I still like it, so I thought I'd put it up here. It's my first image posted.

This image was taken on the waterfront in Burlington, VT during an evening stroll. I was in the area on a business trip.

Aside from cropping and resizing, there has been no PP applied to this image beyond what the camera did. Unfortunately I had loaned the camera to a friend earlier in the day, and he returned it with the capture mode set to jpg... which I didn't realize, so I don't have the raw capture of this image. I would like to make it a little sharper, but even modest sharpening produces unpleasant artifacts around the highlights in the water and the contours of the ripples.

Got the kr a few weeks ago my first dslr. Had an old Minolta srt101 that I had been shooting with and decided it was time to get something a little more modern. Its amazing how different shooting digital is to film so much more to think about!!

Bought a K-r a couple of months back for our trip to Disneyland, CA.

The Old waterfall in Trollhättan gets opened a couple of times every summer. And I was there just by coincidence.

These were the shots I took the very first day of having my KR without having read the manual. So its a hot mess. My lens are the two kit lense, 18-55mm and 50-200mm. Enjoy
