Hey! thanks for the comments and for the warm welcome! I just wanted to give some additional info on the above pic. The image is of my neighbor's front wooden porch (Most of the homes here were built around 1912!. It's funny... I pass this on a daily basis and never took notice really. Then I was sitting there watching my daughter ride her bike when it just kinda caught my eye! Got to go grab the camera!!! I took a few different angles, many had some shadows and too much sunlight. Just didn't look right! I waited until the sun was down, then tried again. I focused mainly on the top part of the porch, where there is alot of weathering, peeling paint and damage in general. Oh, by the way, there was no post production except to resize the image down to 800X600! Thanks again for the feedback! l8r!
