Fabulous!!!! Is there some sort of effect here! Looks awesome!!! Did you go inside?
Anibal replied
Thank you so much, I looked inside, not to much to see. I use Adobe with alot of “layers” and adjustments. I also try to shoot in RAW if I remember, gives you more wiggle room with your pictures. Do you use Layers?
Angel Warda
Yes, i have Photoshop Elements 6 and i play around with that!
Anibal replied
great.. Like I said layers are your best friend…:0)

Ani~ Hi! I just now discovered you…well, I am sure that you are already on the MAP, but I am glad to have found you by shadowing My friend, Sharon, around RB. You are incredibly talented and in case no one has told you that yet, I thought I’d bring it to your attention! ;)
My nieces live in and near Hailey, Idaho, and I had the great pleasure of taking my two terrific kids to visit them during Christmas, 2007. We snow-mobiled to Redfish Lodge thru Happy Valley, and I was able to witness some of the most breath-taking and glorious vistas I had ever had the good fortune of absorbing. We also spent our days taking in the sites and galleries in Ketchum and Sun Valley. Maybe you might recognize some of the locations I captured. If you have time, I’d love to hear your comments and perhaps you could take a peek over at my RedBubble page?
I look froward to taking some time to browse through your photos. I have already added a few to my favorites.
WOW!....Hank
Anibal replied
Thank you Hank, that is quite a complement, I appreciate it very much. Idaho is very beautiful I would have a hard time moving away. I grew up here. We are so close to everything , we are only about 1 1/2 hours from West Yellowstone, and about 4 hours from any major city (boise, Id), (salt Lake , Ut) so it s nice. Bet yah enjoyed the snow last year we got alot, much needed tho. Thanks for stopping by.

Great shot! My ex and I used to call that one a “fixer-upper”. :-) I’ve driven by this old barn unnumerable times – live in the area too – Jackson. Never had the opportunity to shoot it with such a fabulous sky. If the sky looks like that, I’m always wanting to get over the two passes to get home before they get too nasty!

Hi Anibal, I’ve always liked your shot of this barn and think I might have been shooting the same one? Your image is MUCH better with the tones and rich sky! Check it out the other
Anibal replied
These are so awesome and always take a shot in passing… I wonder how long they will be up? The weather and such keeps taking a toll on these.. makes me a little heartsick and sad to think they may not be there someday.. Thanks so much for the complement
