Different eyes; and mine are not that good as I said. I am glad.
You could always tilt your monitor just to view this one image.... 😂

And a 14 shot rendition.
Hi Stephen,

Wow, that's what we call and expansive view! That must have been quite an experience to actually be there - a moment to savour.

Thank you for sharing... :)

The wreck of the Peter Iredale on the Oregon coast is a popular place to visit. I have been visiting it all my life.

Here's my brother and I in the early 50's. Sorry, film, not Canon RF.

Here's what it looked like when I visited two years ago.

The waves alternately bury and then uncover the wreck. The following were taken this June 2023 with more of the wreck exposed.

The freighter now has a swimming pool.

Being run aground and abandoned to rust away over the decades wasn't enough insult to a fine ship. This dog had to add to it. I didn't see the dog when I took the picture. It was a surprise while reviewing images at home.

Hi Tom,

A fantastic piece of history - made all the more fascinating by the inclusion of the original photograph. (The dog seems slightly less impressed by the wreck... 😂).

Thank you for sharing... :)

Arrrh! I brought the wrong lens. Went on a nearby hike today, one that I've done many times over the past 20 years. I never see anything other than a few small birds in the bush, so I decided I'd just take the 14-35 and take some shots at the top of the mountain. Of course, today would be the day I spot an elusive Japanese serow (カモシカ kamoshika). It was down in the bushes, so I didn't get a good shot. But now I know one lives in this particular area, so I have a challenge this summer.

Another graffiti wall from the streets of Providence. This is a six-image stitched result that took a while to merge and correct due to the short distance from the wall on the narrow street. Multiple artists collaborated on creating this dragon. The camera is an R7, 18-150 mm RF-S lens, stitched in Photoshop, and perspective and distortion corrected using mainly the Adaptive Wide Angle filter with a little help from the Liquify filter.

If there are any bass players out there, you may know about the Phillip Kubicki ExFactor bass guitars. They are unique. I’ve owned one for over 30 years, have no intention of letting it go and while I don’t play as often as I once did, still enjoy playing it. I needed a leading lines photo for 52 Frames this week, decided to use this bass, and did not want to do the obligatory looking down the guitar strings photo. I wanted to include the Factor logo so setup an off-camera flash and had some fun in Lightroom Classic. I like the depth and shadowing of the photo. The logo seems to pop off the guitar. This one was fun to make. Thanks for hanging around and taking a look.

Hey man - I took it upon myself to give an enlargement and mild clean-up to your image - I split the difference between too much and barely any. If you apply too much AI the people start looking like aliens. I had to take a screenshot and work from there so I was already behind the curve. Keep or delete - your choice.

Thanks Bob.

This came from a trunk full of family photos. I went through them last year looking for photos to scan and put together in a poster for my brother's 75th birthday. He was born in 1947 and I in 1945.

What did you use to clean up the photo? I volunteer for a local museum and scan and restore lots of old photos. Most much older than this one.

Hi David,

I've made 'I brought the wrong lens' into an art form, so I feel your pain. However, this time you came away with a fine image and some useful local knowledge - so well done!

A fascinating looking creature - thank you for sharing... :)

Phil
