@Craig: thanks, Craig--i have to admit the light looks a lot better after the processing...
Intentional ? or spotted later !! Nice long evening shadows.

Great shot and nice shadow effect. Like the idea for a self-portrait, great composition.

@drphoto: thanks a lot! i had a lot of trouble with the sharpening though. i think i shouldn't have done any sharpening in picasa, normally i like how it sharpens better than photoshop (as strange as that sounds, i usually end up oversharpening or undersharpening with photoshop) but this time it kept getting pixelated.
And his car.

Fabulous light and I love the warm glow.
5 May 2008 3:09pm
The colours are great also I like the shadows that are just visible. Is one of them you?
5 May 2008 3:27pm
@Scarabaeus: thanks! i'm actually the blob of a shadow left of the car's shadow. but now that i look at it, it does sort of look like there's another person getting out of the car
Very nice idea for a self-portrait. I love the colours!

I agree about the light, very nice. As for the pixelation, it's not too bad... (Yes, I'm back from my trip!)

Beautiful old tree - the golden light of the sunset provides wonderful illumination of it as well as casting your shadow!
5 May 2008 4:26pm
I like the light and I also like the other scene here in the shadows -- you getting out of your car for the shot. A classic photographer!
Nice colour - A pity those electric lines !

Beautiful golden light and long shadows ... what I want to know is was this (self portrait) your plan with the shot or just serendipity?
5 May 2008 5:12pm
@Ron: Thank you! Well, in this particular shot it was planned. I was trying to take a shot of the tree (I have other photos of it I haven't processed yet) and I was getting annoyed that my shadow was in the way and then it occurred to me that I could do this self-portrait series. (don't count on me actually putting a photo of my face online)
Great time of day to take this shot. Planned it, right? The self-portrait, I mean... heh. Don't worry about pixilation in this one; sharpening brings out the individual plants in the field, but that's a good thing.

The intenseness of that sunset really makes this photo. Looks a nice landscape too.
5 May 2008 5:16pm
@Observing: thank you!
I see you:-) Nice one. Love the sunlight.
5 May 2008 6:37pm
Great self portrait!!! : D
5 May 2008 7:43pm
Nice lighting in this shot. I like the warm tones.
5 May 2008 9:57pm
Nice shadow self portrait!
5 May 2008 10:44pm
The light is absolutely gorgeous! Love the idea of the self-portrait (I'll have to remember that). Great job!
