Having a Bear of a time at Bear Creek
I went down to Bear Creek Regional Park where in the past I was able to find some quaint little spots to do some nice shooting, however, all I could find were trash filled nooks where people had been damming up the water shed. It was a sad moment for sure. Here's one of just a few shots I was able to knock out without trash. :mad:

So hard to see the image on my laptop because it is so BIG! Read the guidelines.

Jody, I find simultaneously holding down the [CTRL] and [-] keys works well. Repeat as needed.

Pretty shot, James! Here's a story for you--i was looking on Google Earth the other day to get an idea of where to be in Rosita for sunrise yesterday (cause the only other time id been there was in snow and i didn't get far). I clicked on a couple photos and thought, "that's odd, these are really good!" (since most GE photos are pretty nasty...) then i noticed they were your photos :biggrin:

Not bad, but I'd try bringing up the shadows more. The lower half seems quite contrasty on my monitor.

Very nice James. It is sad when you get out there, and people disrespect the environment.
