Ride a bike, share your experience and love. When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart. ~Diane Ackerman

Fun with my camera and photoshop.

Yesterday I rode GMR with Annette. During our long ride we talked about many things. One such topic was her wonderful panoramic photographs of GMR.

It turns out she takes the pictures and her husband Bill uses special software to "stitch" groups of pictures into one long photo. Well I thought I'd give it a try.

The following picture is of the family watching the Laker Game. Click on it and you can see how long it is. This was about a 130 degree shot.



I also bought Photoshop Elements and tweaked this picture I took yesterday. I think it came out okay. PSE is pretty simple yet adequately powerful for my simple needs. This picture I lassoed the middle flower then black and whited the background to really bring out the color of the main subject.
