15. Now you're going to make me go all Adventist

and take a tour. You've really captured an entire era with that photo.

3. IMHO

the curtains make this photo.

Outstanding!

10. Thanks, Celebration!

I had to use Lightroom to get the values right, and I was very happy with how the curtains came out.
I took this shot with my old 6mp Sony DMC-H2 which, sadly, drowned on a trip to Micronesia.

I really liked that camera. :(

4. Serenity. Beautiful. Is there a chair nearby and a lock on the door? n/t

[Adsos Letter]

11. Thanks, Mira! There is, but the room is not mine.

I took this on a tour of Elmshaven, up by St. Helena.

5. Lovely.

The light/The drapes/the water. The varying reflections.

13. Thanks, handmade34! I'd like to have a large copy also; unfortunately

I took this with my old 6mp Sony DMC-H2 which has since drowned on a trip to Micronesia. The 6mp, plus the adjustments I made in Lightroom, would never allow this one to be blown up successfully. :D

16. You might be surprised.

6 mp would be about 3000x2000. At 150 DPI that would be 20x13, depending on how much cropping you did.

Great photo. Excellent job at getting a good exposure without losing the lace pattern in the curtain.
