    wow, awesome Gigi. love the composite. the selective color really pops. love red barns in the snow indeed. perfect in my opinion. i’m jealous of course ;-)

  • micmac replied

    You know how long I looked for a beautiful red barn as beautiful as your “southern snow” pic,all the time I had your photo in my mind and then I saw that barn.I had to add the sky with some rays because the pic taken on a cloudy day was kind of flat but I didn’t do any selective colors…winter scenes are sometimes surprising…thank you for your beautiful comment J.K ..now I have your superb spider in my mind…your work is so inspiring for me and guess what,I am going to buy my new macro lens for my D200 next week….I’M SO EXCITED…YEPPE…I feel like a kid…have a super day …Gigi

    Bonjour Gigi…quelle chance qu’on puisse dire “goodbye winter”La ferme rouge est réjouissante dans la neige..une photo très réussie mais en réalité je préfère l’été.

  • micmac replied

    J’avoue que j’avais mon truck de l’hiver comme on dit en bon québécois..maintenant mes premières fleurs indigènes fleurissent,quel joie…et toi ma belle,ça va…...tu sais,c’est bizarre mais la neige est apparue après une manoeuvre dont je ne me souviens même pas.J’étais sur ps element 5 et click il neigeait…trop drôle…je t’embrasse et te fais un gros serre fort…ton amie Gigi..
