So 3 months ago we arrived in New Brunswick, and had a fun month. Time flies. I'm still thinking about how to do a book about the trip. Maybe that's why I've been in a bit of a photographic funk since then. Maybe I'm feeling intimidated by the thought of reviewing more than 2000 photos to see if I overlooked any gems, or that could be improved with new mad Lightroom skillz, like I did with one of the photos below. Maybe I'm procrastinating. Or maybe I'm warming up the dither machine for Image of the Year.
Somehow, this photo expresses how I feel.
No, I'm not ready for Christmas, but thanks for asking. Not. I'm never ready.
Yesterday was a fun day in one sense. It was just beginning to snow as I finished coffee and went to have a shower. It was a full blown blizzard when I came out. Fairly quickly the expected news headlines happened. There was an 80 to 100 car pileup on highway 2 just north of town. Glad I wasn't involved. I feel for the people that were. I can just see all the insurance adjusters putting in for overtime. I enjoyed being inside, drinking a mug of mint tea, being a fuzzy blanket substrate, and not having to go anywhere. Score a big one for being retired.

I understand feeling dried out and droopy. I had to take a break from the news and didn't look at any news for two weeks.
ReplyDelete~ 01 - Nicely done.
~ 04 - Nicely done on this one as well. If the detail exists on the negative, I might try doing some dodging and burning on the eyes.
~ 05 - The bones are good here, and I think this image could be even stronger with some editing (brighten lighthouse and increase red saturation, add some drama to sky through dehaze, alter light and dark of rocks through linear gradient)
Cheers
