Brent showed me this picture last year and it made me very envious. I wish I had been there.

However I thought the original shot could do with a bit of post processing -I couldn’t resist the urge to fiddle with it. I did it and sent him a copy for his approval before posting it on the web. I never heard from him…..

Having lunch with Brent the other day I subtlely asked in my usual form  “didn’t you like what I did to your shot Brent?”  Apparently he missed my E mail. Anyway here is the shot with the Bing interpretation and with the Masters permission!

Ian had just finished his skiing trip in Japan. He said during a dental visit that he got some interesting shots from the top of the mountain. I asked him to send me his favourites. This one I really love and again I couldn’t resist the urge to fiddle with it.  I tried to achieve the effect of a traditional Japanese woodcut print.

The other 3 were from his visit to India last year.

Here is her interpretation of my Japanese Bride.
