Canon DSLR "Picture of the day"

[D Thompson]

This is basically straight out of the camera (cropped a little, no other PP)...24-105, f/10...(you know I have a thing for apple orchards, don't you? )...

Beautiful shot Michael. It really needs nothing done, but it has many possibilities in post.

TenD, perfect composition but would you mind to boost saturation for this?

I actually de saturated this one a bit. It fit the mood of the morning better as I remembered it. Here's a more saturated version with a crop.

Have a funny feeling some pictures that day i took accidently with IS switched off as i was playing round with my camera that morning, i do it all the time aswell as shooting at night 1600 iso+ and then going out the next day and wondering why the cameras so sensitve today!!
Ah the sound of amatuer...
