This being a camper thing, I am faking it a bit. I’m in my last week here in the campgrounds and I do know how to use the features, most of them anyhow, of the camper itself. But do I feel confident? Not at all. I am lucky enough to be able to bring it to Cape Cod next, to my sister’s house, and I tell myself that I’ll practice putting it up and down while I’m there. Make sure that I can do it on my own. Having my cousin’s here for help and advice, and just plain fun, has been great. But that also means I haven’t been on my own. Plus computer quirks have me processing photos in a convoluted way that would probably have my photo group comrades shaking their heads. Which brings me to this morning, and a 4 AM trip to the bathroom, which let me see that the sunrise was coming soon. So off I went to the bridge to take pictures, and then came home to drink my coffee and see what I got. But Photoshop didn’t give me the option to merge photos into HDR like Lightroom does. Not that I could find with only one sip of coffee in me. There I was with three images open, I think, and I made one click and it came up with this.
Wouldn’t I have loved it if it really looked like that? But it didn’t. It was pretty, but not that dramatic. I need to figure out how to open in Lightroom, and I need to make a list of all the things I have to do to be ready to pull out of here on Sunday. And I need more coffee, but maybe not in that order…
