Night Fishing...

[shiato storm]

slight post processing going on... wondering what would happen if I had a play, this is where I go fly fishing with my dad...and apparently one fo the nicer evenings we've had this period between winter coming and winter gone...

bootyful pic mate, couldnt nab a hi-res copy could I?

That's a stunning picture, do you ever show any of your photography? that would make a beautiful exhibit

How many photoshop filters did you run that through? It looks like a painting. Nice.

[shiato storm]

well, i added an adjustment layer (gradient) over the top to bring out the sky, in the original all the foliage is black as black so I lifted it all a bit and added a touch of colour (green) then smudged/blurred here and there, erased a bit too. I have since worked on the left side where its still a teeny bit unrealistic to bring the tone to a more natural level - i'm at work so don't have access to it but I'll post it later today - the full size is something like a meter sq. as its a stitch of two pictures.

p.s. jpeg compression from the original hasn't helped the colours come out but trust me, the original is great

God you must have a good Digicam.

the camera is only as good as the person behind it...

its 'just' a sony P200. does me fine!

As ever shiato, another excellent pic. Do you do flickr - be awesome if you put all the pics you've put here on there. Or get some real hosting, not enough pics on your free virgin account.

[shiato storm]

yeah I know, virgin only give out 10mb or something poxy like that. tad annoying really. I'll have to look at a way of displaying them better, and perhaps selling them to the world at large as a nice earner on the side, if I get my act together and take enough decent pictures!

Nice, just needs a little blue-green algae.

Ok my take at an "Artsy" Image

Spent ages (ok 5 mins) finding Location, Model ect... then 15 playing with the camera.

hehe, its trying to keep the buggers still thats the skill! at least with landscapes we get it easy - mountains, fields, rivers...not the sort of stuff that gets up and wanders off

[shiato storm]

ah, thats what the eyes were following!

[shiato storm]

right, adjusted version here. as you can see I've pulled back the brightness on the left...

That's a gorgeous pic, she looks very serene sitting there

My Dog is a poser when he see's a camera, he runs around excited for a second then sits very nicely while you snap him

[shiato storm]

yeah, was really nice...chilled beer, couple of fish in the bag. happy days
