The Little Miami Bike Trail is in flux this time of year. The old has fallen and the new is being born. Birds are on the move and the wildflowers are awakening. Trees are budding and soon will provide cover for the forest. Even the humans are coming back, enjoying a ride in nature.
Off to the races.

Beautiful, as always 🙂
Love the contrast of the colours with the pale background!
Thanks Claus.
Oh boy, “Island Bliss, Ohio Style…” NICE!
Thanks
Great capture of a local treasure special to many.
Thanks Frank. 🙂
Love the taking flight picture.
Thanks Charles.
Gorgeous! Makes me want to ride my bike. Though, I will probably just stare at a computer screen instead. Almost!…
Thanks Kevin!
Awesome pics!
Thanks Lisa.
I’m enjoying the cycles of the seasons through your photography. It’s no where near as obvious here in Australia. Well, maybe I’m just not looking carefully enough. Wish I could capture the crispness in the air at night here now……the smell of woodfire smoke from peoples chimneys….The soft way the autumn light falls. My favourite time of the year. 🙂
Sounds fab. Thanks
Oooo I like “taking flight” cause if you look closely the eyes are like laser red. So cool!
Thanks Tasha. Doing well?
Loved the diversity in tones in these! Beautiful…
Thanks Sheila.
It is a nice time of year – over here in Aus we are heading into Autum so I am very jealous……………it was nice to feel like I was there for a minute 🙂
Thanks. How cold does it get where you are?
not as cold as you guys but where I live its unusual to get below minus. Last year we did have a few -2 degrees but thats VERY rare – a normal winters day is on average is around 15. 0 c and I dont want it any colder than that! I always feel so bad when I see people on the news shovelling snow
just to get to work – thats unimaginable to me………………parts of Australia do get snow but not my part! 🙂
Wow, I didn’t know they get snow down there.
how you illuminate Ohio!
Thx. 🙂
“Blue blur” is my favorite. I get cold just looking at it.
It was warm though. 😉 Thanks Paul.
I love your work. I was wondering if you’d mind sharing a trick of the trade, as it were. I have been trying to figure out how you’re able to take color photos, make them b&w BUT keep one color in. I know it’s a function of your editing software, but I still can’t figure it out.
TIA,

OnX. In the program I use, it’s called a “stroke”. There is Blue, Red Cyan etc. You can adjust how much range of color and saturation. Sometimes, I “Edit Mask”. This is when there is multiple “yellows” or “Reds” coming in and I only one one type. This way I can make those yellows I don’t want into B/W.
Love the B&W shots with partial colour, they are very striking!!
Thx! 🙂
Nice to see folks out and about on those trails. What a great community you live in! Thanks for sharing!
Welcome. Thanks for reading.
I love the bicycling pictures. Very nice against the black & white trees on the trail.
Thanks, glad you like those. :P)
Great shots! I’m envious… LOL 😀
