Day 5, where does the time go?
I’m doing these on the early morning dog walk, this morning I was a bit later than usual and it was sunny and the birds were awake. So today it’s a Blue Tit.

I shot this yesterday, looking north from the Colorado National Monument, overlooking a portion of the Grand Valley, and the Bookcliffs to the north.

D750, Tamron 70-200, 145mm, f14, 1/125, iso 100. Converted to b/w in Topaz.

One last landscape for me. On the road up the Grand Mesa in western Colorado. This valley was bathed in light while the mountains had multiple layers of clouds, and just before the snows came

D750, Nikon 24-70, 38mm, f13, 1/320, iso 100.  Converted to b/w in topaz.

I guess he means the dust spots, sometimes called dust bunnies.

Bengt, how was the TMY developed? It looks almost like HP5 developed in Microphen with this more visible grain than usual. I really like the look.

Especially like the foggy morning, deano. I have a soft spot for artificial light
