873 - Reaching For The Moon



This is finally a shot of last night. Caught up πŸ™‚

Hmm … I can’t say that I’m very inspired lately. I did my best to salvage it in post, threw the nice tint on it that I use lately, added some distorted edges, but a better image to begin with would not have been unwelcome πŸ™‚

This looks like a good time to change lenses, to search for some radically new way of seeing. Actually I am waiting for Nikon’s new 35/1.8 DX to become available. Nikon Rumors has it, that it’s already available in Finland, but for today I’ll try my luck with the fish πŸ™‚

The Song of the Day is “Reaching For The Moon” from Holly Cole’s 2007 self titled album. Hear it on YouTube.

In the whole the last three pictures tell a story. I love the tone and pre-process. Be curious about your new way of seeingπŸ™‚ Sunny greets

Oh yes, heavily edited πŸ™‚

"683 - Welcome To The Republic" explains how I get these lines. The rest is a B&W conversion, a gradient map, some blur, some noise added to a mid-gray layer in overlay mode, some blur around the edges, some ... you get the idea πŸ™‚

ummm ... if you need to find a good home for your Sigma 20 or your Nikky 24 ... well ... I know a lonely D80 looking for friends ;D
