| | | Re: Photographed (or Processed) TODAY fpellerin, both of your shots are lovely! You have chosen lovely subjects and show them off well with your execution -- you get close to your subject as well as isolating it from the background with depth of field. I hope you often get to walk in the garden at lunchtime with your camera!  |

| | | Re: Photographed (or Processed) TODAY Thanks for the compliments CJ! I try to make it out there every lunch break. It's especially interesting these days as new flowers seem to pop-up every day! I have a few more shots that I have yet to process...hopefully I'll get to them today! |

Beth | Beth, a nice sharp rendition of the hair. You did "blow out" the background, and might need to work on that next time.... Ohhhh, and by the way, kudos on the creative positioning of your subject. Quote:

In fact I used a combination of filters, (which I usually do.) Shot original with Nikon D50.
One of those images which I keep messing with because it takes manipulating well.
And thanks.

| | | Re: Photographed (or Processed) TODAY Here's another bug from the weekend that I processed today. Two "oopsies" on this one: 1- Blew some highlights on the Lilac blooms and 2- Should have stopped-down the lens a bit for more DOF.
Shot info: Nikon D50, Sigma 70-300 APO DG Macro @300mm, ISO 200, Exp.Comp. at -0.3EV, 1/640sec. at f5.6.
(Used CaptureNX to PP the shot...my other laptop in in the shop for repairs so I don't have Photoshop for the moment. I have to say I don't like NX at all!!!)

| | | Re: Photographed (or Processed) TODAY Crafted this for a new mom (and dad) from pix I took at church Sunday.
Hard to believe my kids were ever that little. Time sure flies...  |

| | | Photoshop action simplifies 3-up flexible layout Speaking of kids, the attached examples are of my (too) soon to be 11 daughter. She's such a cooperative subject. This is her "Dad, I can't believe you're taking another picture" look.
Anyway, I used this shot to test a Photoshop action I was working on today.
The action allows me to create this "three image layout" based on a single image of any size / dimension image, regardless of its resolution. The result an image consisting of individual layers, so further manipulation is possible -- including swapping in different pictures, applying different layer styles, converting one to black and white, etc.
While these examples aren't all that innovative layout-wise, the fact that each was created in less than 20-seconds is what pleased me.
I'll continue to hack at this action. If I can get a few more kinks worked out I will post it at www.atncentral.com. |
