Re: Creative interpretations - Golden Gate Bridge

How about a BW for openers...

I used the usual method of combining multiple layers from the color channels using layer masks and various blend mode combinations.

Re: Creative interpretations - Golden Gate Bridge

Wonder when they found such a clear day to shoot this photo. Where's the fog?

This was shot from a nice little parking area just off the highway on the north side of the bridge where you can park and shoot photos.

YES! Now that's more like it.

That's a fantastic city. One of the few places where you can sit at a Irish pub in Chinatown drinking German beer and eating Japanese food.

I'm just sorry it's so far from Florida.

Re: Creative interpretations - Golden Gate Bridge

Some beautiful artwork here everybody.
Myself and my 3 toddlers are all recovering from the flu. So instead of fighting with Painter, I went with the familiar old friend AHB in Photoshop. This is the first I've felt like painting in days. Feels good to be back.

Chalkaholic blended with Xero's Mist filters (Serious Fog and Soft Mood) along with some color/sat enhancements.
