I over sharpened the last one. I need to go back & fix it. I was just so excited I go in a hurry. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Hey Wannabe, thanks for sharing the pics, and welcome to Shuttertalk! Good to have you onboard, and feel free to join in the conversations... we're all pretty friendly round here.
I really enjoyed those, especially reading about the "Old Rugged Cross". We've sung that ahymn a few times at church, so it's great to know where it came from!

Do you really still ride horses around town there? :O
It is a really nice hymn, thanks for sharing, I never knew about it's history.
Is the fence there placed around because it is a heritage site? Is the church still in use?
I like how the 2nd picture shows the grain on the wood, which isn't very visible in the first picture.

LOL not really. This is a very small settlement in the middle of no where.

The fence is there because it is being restored.

No but you can take tours of it.

If you like I can give you some links about it. It is very interesting.

That first one is a real cool looking old building. The grain really adds to the image. In the last image though I'd be tempted to use a noise removal software. Are you familiar with Neat Image or Noise Ninja?
