mind's eye to robo-eye

When I shoot, I have something in mind but the camera doesn't see what I see. Where did that garish purple come from? Why is the image flat, dull, boring! I have to deconstruct the elements and set the camera controls to create my mind's eye. Tricky, very tricky!

I visited Suzzallo Library's beautiful ascending stone steps to learn my new camera's functions. Here are 3 experiments to manage saturation and light. Still have lots to learn!

I like the view, the different light/color settings! I like that no one is in the pic, so you can let your mind wander ...

where shall "we" go? up down up down???

so many choices, so little time!!!

great showing of working with your camera!

I think my favorite is the top one, shows some great color and enhances the patterns
