Captured the moment of ecstasy when the barmaid set her eyes on some gold and diamonds,a girls best friend...

Yes, there is some lens correction in PS and AL2010 but it's not as accurate PTLens. Even after the adobe corrections, PTLens still fixes a bit of what Adobe missed out on. On some pictures it's not much but on others the change is rather drastic.

 

That pic is a nice candid picture. You should print it out and give it to her as a gift. wink_face.gif

 

Here are some new ones I took.

Yay for good looking sister in-laws !

My Black & White exposure was the only reality as a child growing up in the 1960's.

All black and white photos all the time,same for T.V. and when colour was invented,you just said no more B&W.

I enjoy looking at them but something shuts down in my head,like the kid that had one too many bologna sandwiches for lunch over the years.

Here is my Canada Day 2011 collection.July 1st holiday was Friday but the photos are from Saturday,just like your 4th of July,celebrations run all weekend.

Captured at the Toronto Ribfest,Centennial Park Etobicoke.

Getting my Ketucky Smokehose half-rack of ribs,no sauce:

Sit down to eat and have a beer,great weather 86F,place was buzzing:

500

Listen to Aerosmith tribute band,Mama Kin while having dinner:

500

Plenty of Ribbers to choose from:

500

They all claim to be Champions but I know better after a taste:

500

A 'Charity' Hearse-for your next party?:

500

Crazy Blanket Stands:

500

Family Affair-Scarface,Natural High and I Love You-only in Canada:

Back to family roots as fur traders,I bought my Queen size blanket with "Northern Wildlife"-I couldn't resist...

Grey Wolf,Grizzly Bear,Black Bear,Polar Bear,Moose,Elk and a Bald Eagle all keeping me company tonight!

Hey...Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while-all I thought of was the lyrics to "Gallows Pole" by Led Zepplin after that picture!

At the corner of Park & Cherry streets...
500

There was a little cherry festival at Cherry Park yesterday!(with a newly planted cherry tree too)
500

When not wearing headphones,do you walk through the park with a live Python around your neck??
500

Instead of Toddlers & Tiaras,how about little RocknRollas-good for those boys.
500

These guys sang the saddest songs ever,Hank Williams Jr.-"My Bucket's got a Hole in it" and so on...

Canadians...always about the hockey,even on the hottest day in July.

We tried everything on the menu but the Cherry Pie was best of all!

The Green one is a 1971 Swinger 340,Dodge Dart's performance model but the owner has modified it from original.

Dodge also had the 1971 Demon 340,with fender mounted small devil character decals and side stripes,built on the same platform as the Plymouth Duster.

500

Thanks for bringing in the beach pics LFF,more girls are welcome anytime too!

Every summer,I try and get to one "Pig Roast".
Found one yesterday being put on by a local bar,in an industrial part of town.
Never been to "Abby's Grill and Cafe" before.
Inside,the old crotchety owner was dishing out food on the buffet line just like the "Soup Nazi".
The crowd was a mix of locals and workers from the area.
Fun on the front parking lot and inside the bar!

Two 80lb.pigs were cooked.All you can eat for $10 and $3.50 beers.
500

Cellphone picture.I sat beside the huge trucker "F***'n Reg",as he called himself,because he said:"I have so many great ideas"-ha,ha!
500

Event ran from 11:00am to 10:30pm,plenty of time to get your food & drink on...
500

Guy rolled up in a van around 4:00pm for the 'entertainment'.Rear doors of the van opened up and held a type of projection screen for videos of the music he was playing as DJ.Odd but fun.

Big time one day show,Woodward-today only in Detroit.

I go to this show in Oshawa,Ontario,at the G.M. Canada Head Office(where Camaro is built).

Next Saturday,I just might make the drive over.

It used to be a one day show but has expanded to three I see,one of the better car shows up here.
