Russ, great work as usual. I use Picture it to level my slanting horizons -- it will do it by degrees instead of cropping. Quick and easy.

Funny about the slant! Shows I may get up early but I'm really not functioning on a level plain. I Photo make it easy to make the correction too.

Russ, I can never get tired of your photos! Did you take these with your new Nikon camera? Love the moon shot! You must have used a tripod for that
one, no?

Moon shots....as the moon reflects sunlight, it can be shot at 1/60 or 1/125th of a second....no need for tripod.
Folks who take time lapse or slower than 1/60th will get a circle/dot of light with no definition 
Don't believe everything you think....

Most new cameras allow you to place a grid in the viewfinder/
LCD which makes lining up horizons easy in camera. Some even give you a horizon level. Finding them in the menus isn't always easy to do though.
Nice shots.

Yes that's it. Nikon P510 I put my big Nikon away now. Definitely not the quality but it really fits my level of snap shooter well. Can switch to
movie mode too.
