Hi Damian,Wow, what did you do, go out and get one of those 12pixel cameras too! THis is so sharp and detail is remarkable. Great exposure too! #90693Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
LOL - Thanks Donna! I wish I could afford one of those, but I just donated a bunch of money to the IRS last month. So, for the time being, I'm still using my little 'ole 2.1 Mega Pixel Olympus - but I do have Zoom, Zoom, Zoom!I do plan on getting a Nikon D100 as soon as I can save up the dough....
Thanks again Donna! #90710

Very nice Damian. And very unique shingles also. What kind of building were they on? #90735Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
Thank you Heather! This is up in Solvang California - a little dutch town.... There are also many thatched roofs as well, but they didn't have the same photographic appeal as these roofs did!DPG #90741

It is! And not too far from where I live.... Lots of brightly coloured buildings to boot! #90809Gary H. Minish May 26, 2019
