All these photos keep giving me ideas... You bet I'm gonna gussy up my little 14x4 abg once it's set up! Bamboo reed screens around the pool is step one... Maybe a shade sail over said pool... And fake parrots or a string of lights shaped like parrots... (I'm nothing if not irreverent!)

I made my own poolside tiki hut with a double tiki bar, which has now become my staycation over the summer. I decorated it to make me feel I am in the Florida Keys or somewhere in the Gulf. Looking for ideas of things to add to this poolside paradise.

I bought the first piece for my pool paradise today:

Amazon.com : Bwinka Chinese Traditional Amazing 4 Tubes 5 Bells Bronze Yard Garden Outdoor Living Wind Chimes 60cm (1402966001) : Garden & Outdoor

Amazon.com : Bwinka Chinese Traditional Amazing 4 Tubes 5 Bells Bronze Yard Garden Outdoor Living Wind Chimes 60cm (1402966001) : Garden & Outdoor

I love wind chimes, and look forward to several more sets of chimes. My ultimate goal is a set of Corinthian chimes, those big tuned ones that ring in such a sonorous way.

I think my pool paradise will end up being a combination of Zen and parrot head. Interesting fusion...

Canon 5D IV Rokinon 21mm 1.4
5 images stitched together and some quick adjustments in Lightroom and then Color Effects for some contrast. Would normally edit sky and land as separate but this was a just quickie .under 5 minutes

Thanks, I appreciate the photo workflow discussion. It's above my current knowledge but still interests me.

Nice. Lightroom is still the best for photos. I’m holding onto the last release cause I refuse to give Adobe a monthly payment. I still use the nic software plugins for my hdr pics. How do you like the that fast wide angle. I have the tokina for my wideangle shooting but it’s a 2.8. I don’t have anything that wide and fast.

Great pic again.

There are some really good prime lenses on the cheap from Tokina, and Rokinon,, the 9.99 is too easy when I was upgrading anyway.. I have and like the Rokinon 14mm2,8 24m TS, 21mm 1.4 and a Canon16-35 2.8 that are the go to lenses for night work..
Is there a photography section here.. I would enjoy some chat there..

Not really a swimming paradise, but our last snow made it look pretty!
