Fountain in Portland

I really love the colors on this water fountain, the history you can see. I played with this in Photoshop Elements to mute the background colors a bit to enhance the fountain.

What do you think?

If yours doesn't, just put it in for about 3 - 4 minutes and listen for the popping to slow.  After the popcorn is popped comes my least favorite step. It's a little awkward, but necessary if...

So far so good, but it hasn't even been 12 hours yet, so we'll see how it goes. Man, am I glad I hold on to these things! If you like my photography (and many of you tell me you do), PLEASE leave comments on my pictures throughout this year. I don't know if I'll be able to continue without that encouragement. Also needed will be suggestions for photography subjects or locations. I'm always looking for ideas!

Fair after Dark

We stayed late at the fair last night so I could get a couple pictures of the rides after dark. I love the lights!
