This is one of the first pictures I posted on Caedes back in 2007, but I removed it a long time ago. I redid it in Topaz Simplify, which drastically improved it. The shot is a small corner of the veranda of the house of Rutherford B. Hayes, 19th President of the United States. The house is in my home town of Fremont, Ohio.

Agree with MrC...the Topaz has added new life to this owd chair!...
I also like the setting too...gives a feeling of 'still life' even though there's none!.........

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
After your rework the colours look really good. Also the background with the bright green maple leaves looks nice Jimbob. Nicely composed shot Jimbob.

I wasn't on Caedes in 2007 Jim - didn't arrive until 2008 so I'm fortunate to be seeing this for the first time. The Topaz has an interesting effect especially on the background it seems to me. Well done my friend.

This is very nice, and the painterly effect works well. I like the perspective. Nice piece of Americana!

Very nice image Jimbob - the painterly effect adds to the quality of your shot - like the low level angle framing also - Well Done!!!:-):-):-)!!!

This has the look of a great watercolour Jim. You must be very proud to have such a great local celebrity come from your home town.

"Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people." W.C. Fields. So I bet you'll go over to see My Gallery.
Nice job Jimbo.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Light foot 1967
I never saw the first one but love this and the post work you've done on this, looks like a great place to sit

VIEWED IN FULL *** HAPPY EASTER
Poor old Rutherford is pretty much forgotten among our Presidents but Ohio had several. Good shot of the cornerstone of his house JimBob.

Sometimes the appropriate response to reality is to go insane. -- Philip K. Dick, Valis
I like the "painting" filter you used on this shot, and the composition�very clean. It reminds me of an Edward Hopper piece, one of my favorite American artists.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Thought this chair was kept for you, but as far as I know you aren't a candidate for the next presidential election, lol.
Very good one my friend!
