I then took it into Paint and made a new pic called alien landscape - hence what to do on a wet Sydney day!

What to do on a wet day?
The first pic I have called foreboding weather - very much like today in Sydney.

What to do on a wet day: eat, drink and be merry works for me every time  .
Cheerio, Anyway the sun has past passed the yard arm in Adelaide, so one glass of 'Merlot' coming up. fozzie
When people ask what equipment I use - I tell them my eyes.
So do I mudder - I lived in Shaftesbury Ave in the 60’s a hop and jump from Soho where I used to wander with my Nikkormat FTn - and Carnaby St was five minutes away - ah those were the days Chris Chris

Post Processing
Today I have utilised the bad/rainy weather to teach myself more photoshop skills and begin post processing the wedding I shot yesterday..perfect day for it and I don't feel guilty for 'wasting' the day away. Hope everyone has had a restful week end! Nice photos too Chris, very abstract, but very interesting!

Shot in the rain at the gardens
Am I the only fool who went out in the rain today and crawled around on my knees, and got soaking wet, in order to get a few pics? These are some of todays pics...and I haven't even finished processing my pics from yesterdays meets??

Stunning pics Matt... now I wish that I'd ventured out this afternoon... while I ribbed you for not posting your Bobbin Head photos earlier, I now understand...
Cheers, John

Mat, some really nice images......
....Chris, I'm sorry mate, that's really, really scary. "Sometimes when you are sad Poko, it's good to hug the monkey."
Probably. But I thank you for the photos that resulted. Herewith my decidedly un expert comments #1 - doesn't grab me - it seems washed out somehow #2 - now that's what rainy days are for. Love the mundane made beautiful. #4 - having seen this and some of the others I'm guessing I either need to start taking shots of flowers in the rain or else walk around with a water mister bottle I really like the shadows in this, with the second layer of petals being in focus, but softer. And no background distractions.
#7 - my favourite. Really good DOF and you feel like the water is about to drip off the screen. Cheers Peter

Thanks. But I rarely work from a tripod. In fact as I was walking around today in the rain I had an idea for exactly what it was that I needed. I am going to try and design it....something so simple yet so effective. Maybe get together with Birddog and get a patent and produce it. Regards
Matt. K
Chris,
Some of those covers are very well matched with Matt's Avatar. Now how do we get Birddog interested in this so that we get a good price   __________

From the sublime to the ridiculous you could always use an underwater housing!!

Not so ridiculous...but too expensive! An effective waterprrof cover for shooting in the rain should cost no more than $40. It aint rocket science! Regards

Your first posted picture has a great deal of potential. I don't think you have explored all the PP possibilities. Keep reworking it until you make it fit your vision. Regards
