I reckon probably about as much fun as this guy was having paddling around in MUD and racing for his life!!! Lots of fun indeed!!!! I wonder if the bowtie helps the speed? For this post processing technique we have been playing with Gradient Mapping and Vignettes, Dodging and Burning and a whole lot more!!…. Who says you can’t make a silk purse out of a pig’s ear!!! All you need to know is how…
Messing around with another of the images that I shot yesterday at the Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens. They have some lovely sculptures in the garden which lend themselves nicely to creative post processing. I’ve combined my out of the camera shot with numerous layers of texture, color and some old scans of film emulsion from the days when I did Daylab polaroid processing.
The top shot of the day was an HDR (High Dynamic Range) image of the fabulous stained glass skylight that graces the main pavillion at the Gardens. Three exposures shot at +3, O, -3 with my Fish Eye lens and combined in camera. Aside from bumping the Clarity in ACR this was pretty well the out of camera shot. Super happy camper ….. loving sunny days and time out with my camera.. …Tomorrow is snow storms and 28F???? What the heck? Listening to Pharrell Williams Happy. Yeah on sun shinny days I feel like a room without a roof! …… and Happiness is the Truth! AND …. if I needed another reason to Happy Dance, it would be that my Workshop with Karen Burns in France in June is SOLD OUT with a wait list….. Yipeee!!!!! Thrilled with the news about your workshop tour in s-f.The flower pictures are wonderful and would be my sort of day out.OXOX M I LOVE THAT SONG! I hope you are looking forward to your wonderful trip and the whole adventure! These photos of flowers are amazing. My favorite is that purple one near the top. xox After I got over my flower envy, I could enjoy these beautiful photos (we’re looking forward to temperatures getting up to 28 on Thursday). Congratulations on having your class fill up – I bet it will be fabulous.
The cure all before I go to bed is to lose myself in a little mindless Photoshop play. So another abstract fractal/architecture combo. Playing with the light is both mesmerizing and relaxing…… and absorbs the frustrations of the day nicely thank you!!! Enjoy! Love it! Hope you are able to resolve those website issues! do you use a fractal program? Yes Carole I do. I love how it makes it look like light is dancing.
Beautiful. I so enjoy watching how you are developing! I love the look of bare branches against the winter sky. You have inspired me to go out today and snap some pics before spring arrives (one can wish)! Love the drama of this. Beautiful,so ethereal.OXOX M |
