Sunday Morning

I really have to say is. . . it seems to be a full time job follwing the old man around with my camera. So far he doesn’t charge for modeling. :)

Base Camp

The old man is dressed warmly and complaining about the heat in the studio. His coat is rated for probably -40 below. I like creative captions as much perhaps as photograpy and post processing itself. I shot tethered to my laptop and used Topaz Inpressions, some of my own textures, a little Nik, and of course Photshop, to end up with this final look.

OLD MILL FALLS

I photographed this wonderful image of what used to be an old mill years ago. My objective in developing this art print was to convey the emotion of being in the presence of such a spectacular scene. One can only try.

Hands Of The Sculptor

I used many software programs for this project and various textures. The one most useful in arriving at the desired result was Topaz Impressions. A wonderful filter that has seemingly countless variables if you so choose.
