A Little More of the Lake

After we left Forney, we just headed through rain, rain, and more rain to get to rain-drenched Austin, TX.

So, rather than show you shots of rain-sloshed windshields, here's a little flash-back to the lake by Robert and Barb's house.

Look! A haunted castle on the lake (it actually would look haunted, if I used Topaz Adjust's ghostly preset, but I haven't decided yet whether I want to buy the program):



Do I really need to label this "sailboat" because I bet you could figure it out. (You'd catch me if I called it a submarine, right?)



Robert docked the pontoon on the lake at a marina, and we all had lunch at The Spot. Robert uses his ipod to navigate around the lake; I thought it was funny to see another person at The Spot with his ipad being used for lake navigation.

Love the castle picture even without the ghostly look. Love the last shot of you, too!

What a place! Can you imagine having to clean it? Of course, if you can afford a house that size, you probably have a cleaning service ;-) You and Doug look like you are having a good time!

Lovely shots and I especially like the shot of you and Doug - enjoying life is the best picture of all.

Re: my pictures - believe it or not, I'm just using the curves adjustment and sharpening filter on CS4. I've strayed away from Topaz for awhile. I didn't want to find myself falling into the habit of applying it to everything. (it is sooo fun!)

Nicki said...

...oh, except the horse shot - I did apply a standard CS4 filter on that one.
