Hello Michele,
I was looking through your photos and happened accross this photo of and indian chief. You have many wonderful photos on your pages.
I realize this is 8 years after your posting but I like to play with photos. You had indicated that you would like to see the Chief photo with a black background. I played around with it and wanted to send a copy to you. I hope you enjoy it.

Fine capture!

Hey Jose , Thanks so much for telling me it happens to you too , or did ... we have like 100% humidity so even if I don't change my lens - or say I arrive at the beach with a clean lens , it is a matter of time before it somehow condenses inside my camera and creates lots of spots .. I used to have more spots after I cleaned the sensor , but I watched enough YouTube video's I can get it very clean now , ha!!
I think there is a problem with my 55mm-200mm lens - everything snaps into place but with-out my elastic bracelet I will be doomed with spots ....
Best Wishes my friend , Your Cannon camera sounds like perfect answer :-)

I have many times similar problems with the sensor and need to clean it 2-3 times a Year, but always let professional shops to do it, do not trust my capabilities. Here the main problem is tot the humidity itself but when changing lens any dust
particles stick into the sensor and the authomatic cleaner can not remove them. Try to solve somehow the problem and now use a Canon Lens 28-300 and I'm happy as covers almost everything I need to do.
Best regards.

Very good shot Michele, one of the things I really look for in a seascape is a horizontal horizon. IMO I may have cropped off the beach at the bottom but that is personal choice.

Happy Sunday dear riny :-)
Thank you for 'seeing' what I 'saw' in viewing this abstract image ....
I appreciate it and value your opinion about the noise, & grainy a bit too much as well I think ...
I do need a new camera honestly - but the reason for the noise I think is because my sensor had shown spots on this shot .... and I tried to 're-touch' them in the program picasa - as well as my settings could have been contributing (?)
What do you think ?
Shutter was 1/200
Aperture- F/20.0
ISO - 400
The choices they give you to choose from aren't available so much when posting , so I put down as close as possible sometimes ...
I appreciate your sharp eye and honest interest , I need help .
Please tell me if you have spots on your images from high humidity and 'what to do '.
I clean my sensor a lot - especially if it's a 'day' at the beach I need to - but I have found that a thick ( like a bracelet) rubber band seems to help and almost 'stop' this problem if placed covering where the lens is attached ...
Hugs , & kusjes , from stormy Oregon coast , USA , Michele~

Thank You dear Jose - interesting you would say 'airbrush' . .. colors , as I have had problems in the past with the high humidity we have
my sensor is very prone to showing spots -
I have 2 len's and I change them frequently . At $50 and 2 weeks with-out my camera I needed to learn how to clean it myself - I noticed several spots on this image and used the 're-touch' feature on picasa - so that could be noticeable (?)
Thank You for your help my friend !!!

PS Why so much noise in your picture Michele, With the right settings your photo can be almost noise-free.
