Black and White vs. Color (A buck in the woods)

I was driving up our raised driveway and Ezra exclaimed “There is a DEER!”.  We’ve been seeing quite a few deer (both buck and doe) around the creek recently.

Take a close look at the first photo and see if you can spot him?

Then take a look at the exact same photo in color.  Amazing.

Panoramic of Simondale Excavating at work

It’s spring and with the beauty of the trees and forest, the end of the snow and rain, came time to do a bit more earth moving.  I believe this panoramic photograph should illustrate the quality of work rendered by Jim Simondale and Matt Simondale from Simondale Excavating, Warriors Mark, PA.  Matt can be reached at (814) 935-8591.

Bear in mind that this covers 180 degrees, so keep that in “perspective” as you scroll left-to-right.  As usual, click the picture to see full-size.

360 Panoramic from the Top of the Hill

I took about 45 photos today, freehand, with Eli’s FinePix point-and-shoot digital camera.  The camera isn’t in top shape, and the light of the sun really washed out some of the shots, which was propagated to all shots by Hugin while stitching.

I would imagine that if I knew more about Hugin, that I could prevent some of this.

Regardless, it’s a pretty cool picture.  Zechariah is in it, if you can find him!
