Lighthouse at Sunset

By Roger Hyttinen / February 8, 2013

We’re having a bit of a winter storm today, although it’s not quite as bad as was predicted. Still had to go out and shovel a couple of times. Makes me appreciate my Florida photos a bit.

This one was taking right at sunset. We were driving along and noticed that it was near sunset — and the thought to check out the Hillsborough Inlet Lighthouse came to mind. Took quite a few pictures as the colors were spectacular. Too bad there was that oddly colored junk in front of it.

Another from the Pier Set

By Roger Hyttinen / February 5, 2013

I haven’t been on for a few days. Finally finished up my Photoshop class for PCM Courseware and have now moved onto Excel 2013. Got around to going through some photos this afternoon and realized that I had not added this one to my portfolio.

Oh Rocky!

By Roger Hyttinen / January 27, 2013

Snowy day here…mixed with sleet and ice. Good day to sit at the computer and play round with images. I kind of thought these rocks at the beach were cool.

Alone at the Beach

By Roger Hyttinen / January 25, 2013

Spent the entire day wrapping up my Photoshop Level 1 class. It ended up much larger than I intended. This is the “instructor-led” version. Once I finish with Level 2, I’m going to work on a personal version, complete with video. Been meaning to do that for awhile. Hopefully, folks will find it useful.

Today’s photo is another one from the beach. I like the fact that with the exception of the sea gull, she was the only one at the beach.

Deerfield Beach Pier at Sunrise

By Roger Hyttinen / January 19, 2013

This is another picture of the Deerfield Beach Pier, but this time the sun is starting to rise. I think this one came out pretty good. It’s a nice picture to view today as a wicked cold snap is on the way – high on Sunday is 10.

Lifeguard Station at the Beach

By Roger Hyttinen / January 18, 2013

Been going through my Florida photos a little at a time. Here’s one of an empty lifeguard at the each. I was impressed by how well-equipped this beach was with lifeguards – I think there were 3 or 4 stations, a short distance from each other.

Reminiscing about Beaches

By Roger Hyttinen / January 17, 2013

I am playing around some more today with my Deerfield Beach photos. The colors came out quite intense, especially the orange. While it is eye-popping, I like it. This is how I torture myself in January in Milwaukee — look at beach photos. That’s what happens when I take 1200 vacation photos!
