Day 300

This is actually a color photograph.  It was just a flat light kind of a day. The only thing I have done to most of these was resize them to 60% and then cropped them to 1440×960. * * * I did lighten these last three with the bottom of the tail a little. * […]

Day 292: Sitka! -or- Back to the Cruise!

An early morning approach to Sitka! (Not the most even of panoramas…Click to enlarge; BACK to return!) A view from Breakfast.
