IAmBroom: Thank you. The main subject tree had no leaves. It looked as though it had recently died. And the blue sky was the way it was. I do no post photo work. I am glad you liked it.

IAmBroom, I edited that tree picture using Picnik through my Flickr. I'm trying to figure out exactly how I did it...if I'm correct I did auto contrast, then boost...but I lessened the boost percent because the default was too much, then I hit soften, and last I added a vignette.
Hope that helps. The options that include boost and soften are under the tab labeled "create". All of the options that I added have the ability to be amped up or lessend and I usually choose the lesser %s because when you add too much it looks a little overdone. Here's the original of that tree shot so you can see the difference.

And here was the edit again..

And here's another one I re-created that same effect with.

And here's the original for that one...

Hi Humus, and welcome.
If you go to that photo, right click on it, and click "copy image location," you can paste the photo's direct link here. Do that and surround the link with [img]and[/img]

It's jacaranda time in south-east Queensland (and other parts of Australia, too). A street I regularly walk through near our home is lined in many spots with jacarandas. Now, beautiful in full bloom, but dreadfully messy when the blossoms fall! We have some in our street, but not as many as here:

Here is a closeup of blossoms on a young tree further down the street:

At this time of the year, when Brisbane is viewed from high vantage points, the jacarandas really stand out. Many specimens are fifty years or more in age. They grow to great height and have a very wide spread of branches - ideal for parks but not really ideal for suburban streets despite the penchant for planting them.

There've been some really gorgeous additions to this thread!
Jacarandas somehow sound so exotic. I don't think we have them around here.

Superdewa, Wikipedia reports that jacarandas can be found in the US but not up your way, though: "Jacarandas are also popular in the southern and central parts of Florida and the southwestern United States, notably in Phoenix, Arizona and San Diego, California. Jacaranda can be found throughout most of Southern California, where they were imported by the horticulturalist Kate Sessions." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacaranda

Very mysterious, Marleymax. Did you take it as a vertical panorama? If so, how did you keep your tree from curving in at the top? Do you take shots of the soccer games? My kids just don't enjoy sports, which frustrates me as I want to photograph sports! I'll have to go to their friends' games.
Here's a little crabapple tree my village's main street:

On this one I cropped in on it Superd. It had a major "halo" on the left side and I didn't want to spend time "shopping it out." I do take LOTS of photos of the girl's soccer games. Maybe I should post some.
