Very nice shot floating minnow. I am not sure if you did any PP on the shot, if you did it is very well done. If you didn't nice job shooting right out of the camera.

That's a nice composition, Mr. Minnow. grin.gif

I notice it looks quite blue, as though white balance was thrown off a bit. If shot RAW, you can easily fix that on the preview screen by changing white balance. If jpeg, you can go into levels and drop the blue to make the colors more true to life.

Color balancing can be frustrating. Take out the blue and then the green and red pop more intensely. In this case, it now looks much better (at least to my eye and monitor). To be more clear, the colors look more natural for the bloom and the bee than the bluer cast in the original image.

Awesome photo Jonny. I understand and appreciate Steves critique. But, what caught my eye in the initial photo was the blue/purple legs and even though it might not be quite the "natural" color(s) that we might expect, after seeing the initial image, the second image doesn't catch my eye like the first. Sorry for the long sentence. This is just my amature opinion and I thoroughly want more advice on PP...

Wow, it is funny how opinions (even my own) are like the wind. Upon further review...the PP certainly brought out the yellow and the flower seems sharper also...and, you really didn't loose much of the blue/purple leg color. Maybe my monitor is acting up? (more likely my brain!). Again, nice shots.

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
