We’re quite jealous of your camper and the girls now want me to get one for next summer! Fat chance of that...but don’t tell them that!
Anyway, gorgeous photos and I’m glad you got some really good away time together!
Cheers, Hollows.
Hey Thanks for dropping in H+F, I completely understand about preoccupation...Sometimes life dictates our priorities for us, regardless of what we want.
We have had that motor-home since 1998 when the kids were young and their mother was still above ground.
It's still in perfect working order. I love to take it out and get away from the rat-race when I can manage to tear loose from the slavery that the almighty dollar has me tethered to!

It shows just how important getting the right crop for your photos is!
Compare this one to it's earlier version on the previous page.
So we should compare these two photos?

None of these two sux. And I can't decide which one I like more.
Ok let me explain...The photo on the left has depth issues due to the light on Honey's right arm and the fact that she's leaning back in the chair. It doesn't translate well in the two dimensional image. It looks like there is a length deficiency. By cropping out the elbow it creates the illusion of length because the end is unseen, still has the same light but the crop has given our eye and brain permission to assume it's the right length.
Do you see it now?
Also the photo on the right conforms to the rule of thirds better, but I don't always follow that rule unless it fits with what I want.
