This was taken with a Coolpix 990 P&S camera. I lived in a sub-division of Breckenridge, Co called, “Pelican’s Nest.” I suppose this was the beginning of a love affiar with digital cameras. I was headed home and saw this fence and it’s shadow on a piece of land called, “Campbell’s Wetlands.” Unfortunately in those days, even tho’ I knew a great deal about film photography, I knew nothing about digital photography; so this was shot at 72 DPI, and it still ranks as one of my favorite photographs. I hope you enjoy. Tonight I re-processed with NIK software, specifically SEP 2, and brought out the color in the fence and increased the brightness of the evergreens in the bacground.

Nikon D750, and a couple of lenses such as Nikon 105, F/2.8 and T6 CU lens and the AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1.8G ED lens. Occasionally I also carry the Nikkor F/2.8 70-00mm lens. I also occasionally carry an older D700 camera.Feedback
Keep your eyes open and look for the unusual.
