I bought this book after seeing this picture:

I wasn't trying to copy the antique look of his photo, it just turned out that way. I honestly forgot it had an antique look until after I uploaded this photo and tried tracking down the link. It just seemed like a natural way to process this photo.

 

It's a really great book for exercising your creativity. Some of the stuff is pretty basic to anyone who has been shooting for a while, but sometimes it's good to be reminded of the basics and to stretch our minds a bit. And there are a lot of interesting ideas to stimulate creativity, which is what attracted me to it in the first place.

 

Anyway, what a fine way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon - drinking some good beer while reading a photo book out on the deck under some spectacular weather.
