They all have a different look. Here is a set in from Fallon, Nevada. A very old abandoned home. In this first shot I pushed the saturation and Vibrance. Getting the blue hues in the shadows and the deep red on the window screens.
The Black and White is a simple conversion in Silver Efex Pro.
And this one is the same as the Black and White but did a gradation on the first layer (background). Erased through the third layer (Silver Efex Pro) to the second layer (original saturated color layer). I also put a shadow on the title.
Deer often find solace, security and dinner in local alfalfa fields. If you had guns pointing at you once a year your place of rest would probably where guns aren’t allowed. This family definitely wanted to keep me at a great distance. The fall colors and very late lighting offered some punch to the photograph.
Fallon, Nevada – the Oasis in the desert. And the home of some old scary buildings. This place is real scary. Literally. I am not sure who owned or owns this place but…….
Look at it. WOW! What a mess. Kinda looks like my kitchen if my wife is gone or sick for more than a day!
Sorry I couldn’t resist the artsy look on this one. Shot so many cactus that I had to push the limit.
What a beautiful Sunday! Temps are just right. Colors are even better. Took this shot just after church in east Bntfl. just off Bntfl. Blvd.
Last night when I was on a walk with Tara I photographed this beautifully colored wasp. This trip I did not carry all my gear that I usually carry, i.e macro flash, etc. Now I somewhat regret it. The lighting was really flat. I could have created more contrast with the background if I had my flash. Oh well. Still have a record of a unique insect. Shot with Nikon D3 and through the 105 f/2.8 macro lens. I don’t have the rest of the metadata with me but I do know that the ISO was 3200. Truly amazing technology these days…thanks NIKON!
