Thank you for your encaouraging words and support Lyle. You have a great camera and a beaut lens. I have that same lens and would probably kill to get my hands on that camera (hehe) so the problem lies somewhere between your equipment and the way you are viewing the subject. Somewhere in your instruction manual there is a paragraph that mentions a dioptic eye piece setting. If you can find that and make adjustments it will make things a lot easier for you to focus. It compensates for people who wear glasses such as myself. I remove my glasses for taking photos and I depend on the dioptic eye compensation to make the necessary adjustment to get my photo sharp. It does sometimes fail me and I too have my soft images when they should be sharp but see if you can find where that dioptic eye adjustment is on your camera. I will do some research and see if I can locate it on my camera again and guide you through.
Keep at it Lyle. You have great compositional skills and that's half the battle.
Thanks again fro dropping by and your kind words.
Cheers - Ann

Hi Ann...yes I am back. I have been a tad discouraged by either my camera or lenses or just my eyes. But I decided to try again so while I am looking at all the beautiful photos, yours are great. I love them. I also love the places that you visit. Looking for more to come. I am also blown away by those that love to comment on your images. You are loved and I can see why. Keep up the great work. God bless.
Lyle

Hey Jude (why do I hum the Beatles song whenever I post a comment to you? - hmmm I know - you've no doubt heard that before
Thanks for dropping by and for your lovely comments. If I see Legolas I shall tell him to not only bring his quiver but also a shiver for you.  He might be hard to find though. You know how stealthy these elves can be.

I have enjoyed your series of waterfalls and this is no exception. If I am allowed to pick favorites mine are the frozen images you posted some time back. I thought they were outstanding. I hope you do find time to share with us from where ever your travels take you. Thank you for all the interesting comments. Del.

Hi Eric, thanks for dropping by. We live in a motorhome and have been snowed in for the winter in Oregon but now that spring is more or less around the corner we are getting the motorhome ready to get the wheels turning again. We're going to head north towards Washington to look for land to build on or perhaps find our next home somewhere. We have no real set plan and if we don't find anything by next winter we'll head for the desert states like New Mexico or Utah as we want a drier winter than the rainy one we've just had here in Oregon. This travelling lifestyle is fun while the wheels are turning but if we stay in one place for too long in the motorhome it gets a bit dull especially if the rain sets in and we can't get out. We enjoy the lifestyle though and maybe that's why we haven't found a house or a town we want to settle in yet. (maybe we're not really trying hard to find a house - hehe) It's a dark and dirty job this travelling around the country but someone has to do it.
Thanks for your encouraging comments over the years. I'll be around as internet connection allows.
Cheers - Ann

Thank you for dropping by Gabriela. Yes, this place does have a romantic Romeo and Juliet type of feel to it. It hink the bridge is a big part of what makes this waterfall so appealing to me.
Thank you for all all support and encouraging comments and I will do my best to stay in touch when I get on the road.

Dear Ann, I believe this is "just ripe" for a painting! The golden colours of the background seem to cradle the white veils of the falls. And one expects a Romeo with his Juliette to appear on that bridge.
Thanks for all your comments, former ones and recent ones, and for your dedication to visit us all!!!Take good care of yourself!

Thank you Ray for your hearfelt words. I don't like long goodbyes but I can't go cold turkey either so I thought I'd wean off UF slowly so to speak. I will do my best to stay in touch but if internet connection doesn't allow for much time in UF then at least I will still be able to email once in a while to keep in touch.
Thank you for dropping by Ray and for your good wishes.

Oh Ann.......I am going to miss you so very much sweetie.
This is beautiful and very reminiscent of the scenes in that wonderful book and film my sweet. The colours are peaceful and gorgeous and the details are so lovely. The bridge spanning the drop looks awesome and to have had this scenario in your backyard was wonderful for you.
I read that you are around for a little longer and I echo what Ina has written, try to keep a bit in touch and if you can postcard us, that'll be great. I shall save my farewells until the last possible moments but would have you know that I hope you enjoy your adventures and that I wish for you to find a place to rest up in permanently..Great big hugs to you, 'see' you soon sweetie......Ray
