254/365 Helen's Front Door II

Today was another beautiful sunny day - high-contrast light, ugh! So I tried out exposure bracketing for the first time and combined 2 frames to produce this. This is my second attempt as just as I had completed the first, and was literally mousing towards 'save'... there was a power cut! >:0( But once I got back to it, I think I did a better job the second time.

Last time I shot this door it was a flat dull dismal day (9/365) in January - how much I've learnt since then??!! With what I have learnt I could make much more of the earlier entry, with my new enhancement skills and software - I have a guru to thank for getting me started and encouraging me to develop my skills.

Thank you - you know who you are :0)

9/365 Helen's Front Door

This is one of my favourite front doors. This is where Helen, my hairdresser, lives. She works from home part time and is also mobile. In the summer I may take another shot as the pots will be full of colour and we may have some better light! Its been another very grey morning so the light isn't great, and I should have taken the tripod, but it isn't too bad.
