This might make jogging a bit difficult in the morning.







That's supposed to be a road, not a puddle.





One daughter couldn't wait to get outside and put her rain boots to use...




The other daughter was too engrossed in Ponyo to be bothered.

contrasty

コントラスト（contrast）は、一般にはある注目物体とそれ以外の背景とが区別できるような視覚的な特徴の差をいうが、特に画像においては最も暗い部分と、最も明るい部分の輝度の差のことをいう。実世界の視覚においては、同じ視野内での色または輝度の差のことである。

コントラストが高くなると明暗の差が大きくなり明るい部分や暗い部分がはっきりするが、中間の色が潰れてしまう。逆にコントラストが低くなると明暗の差が縮まり中間の色が増えて、明るい部分や暗い部分がはっきりしなくなってしまう。

近年ではディスプレイや画像などにおいてよく使われ、デジタルカメラなどで撮影した写真を補正する際、コントラストを変化させることがある。

ーWikipediaより

私はコントラストがある写真が好きです。光と影に奥行きを感じる。平坦ではない我が人生と同じ。
