This has quickly become one of my favorite photos that I have processed from Disney. It took a ton of work to get it the way it currently looks. This was a case where the original was a photo I was going to delete then decided to try something I learned at a Scott Kelby seminar and try to save a photo that you would normally delete.
I purposely did extra processing (over processing?) but really like the finished look. Have a great day.

SPURN POINT sea defences...
Spurn is a narrow sand tidal island located off the tip of the coast of the East Riding of Yorkshire, England that reaches into the North Sea and forms the north bank of the mouth of the Humber Estuary.
It was a spit with a semi-permanent connection to the mainland, but a storm in 2013 made the road down to the end of Spurn impassable to vehicles at high tide.
The island is over 3 miles (5 kilometres) long, almost half the width of the estuary at that point, and as little as 50 yards (46 m) wide in places.
The southernmost tip is known as Spurn Head or Spurn Point and is the home to an RNLI lifeboat station and two disused lighthouses.
Over time, the whole spit, length intact, slips back – with the spit-head remaining on its glacial foundation.
This process has now been affected by the protection of the spit put in place during the Victorian era.
This protection halted the wash-over process and resulted in the spit being even more exposed due to the rest of the coast moving back 110 yards (100 m) since the 'protection' was constructed.
The now crumbling defences will not be replaced and the spit will continue to move westwards at a rate of 2.2 yards (2 m) per year, keeping pace with the coastal erosion further north.
or what is sadly left of it
We were there when it was still accessible!
After a job that took us around Hull, we decided to push through to Spurn-point.
Spurn is a very unique place in the British Islands.
It is a nature reserve.
Three and a half miles long and only fifty meters wide in places on the left side of the estuary of the river Humber.
There are a series of sea defence works built by the Victorians and maintained by the Ministry of defence, till they sold Spurn to the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust in the 1950s.
The defences are in a poor state, breaking down and crumbling, making Spurn a very fragile place wide open to the ravages of the North Sea.
It is a unique place, qua fauna and flora, very protected; there weren't many people on that Good Friday.
This is what is left of the sea defences on the North Sea side, eerie, tragic, but extremely photogenic...
The light was sweet.
Have A GREAT day and thank you for viewing, M, (*_*)

. . . This slightly over processed view of the Rapid River was suggested to me by my cell phone (Android) the other day! The original image is posted along with this one, so that you can see what my phone decided to do all on it's own! Brings to mind a historical quote from the inventor of the Morse Code in 1844: "What hath God wrought"?
Have a great week Facebook and Flickr friends!
This shot was ever so difficult to edit. It was taken with 3 shots with varied exposures. I struggled to stop myself over processing this and although I'm not fully happy with it here it is anyway.
I often, to the dismay of my fellow lens lovers, over process photos and I think at the bottom of it all is NIA [Nascantur In Admiratione]. The reproduction of reality often misses the mystery that lurks behind the ordinary. I can remember as a child traveling in a car with my parents and seeing lonely rocks on the side of the highway and thinking that these might be beings that had power and maybe even praying to them. The ancients knew this feeling and the henges in Brittany [ tinyurl.com/gwttfwe ] document this past. But these entities exist right here in Idaho.

This image is from the soft and subtle end of the spectrum, kind of the antithesis of the over-processed sunrise/sunset shot. Mountains are just visible at the bottom.
Taken from Curbar Edge on New Year's Day. The sun 'twas very bright that day.
Possibly a little over processed, but I seem to be in that kind of mood today.

Processed with Pixinsight
This complete re-work of my M31 data is now my second attempt at this object, focusing on Pixinsight for calibration, stacking, and processing.
The luminance and RGB data have been processed seperately before utilising Pixinsight's LRGB combination tool - the first time I have processed an image in this way.
This close up view of the Andromeda Galaxy has been processed over several weeks, and compared to the previous version, I have attempted to produce a sharper, less over processed and more natural looking galaxy.
Many thanks for looking.
The cat wants in on the new 365.... she says there has already been too many dogs featured.
Massively over-processed.... just because!
I took this pic of the Starling through my kitchen window (which isn't too clean at the moment) and it really isn't good quality at all but I kind of like the result of over processing it,,,,, perhaps I have gone a little crazy LOL
thanks so much for your visits,,,,,
I over processed this image to the max, especially the background.
The spiral snail was virtually that colour to begin with!
I do like having fun with images like this, and you never know the outcome until you finish.
From a very underexposed, rainy evening RAF shot. Now over-processed and rather grainy. Not satisfied with the outcome, but still amazed what Lightroom can do with a botched photograph.
I was shooting these free-hand from the narrow, slippery Nass River bridge as I did not want to be caught on the bridge deck with my tripod set up and a logging truck coming. ;-(

Yesterday I was driving to work. And I was running late. But I still took time out of my already late ass to roll into a McDonalds.
No. Not to buy their nasty ass meals. But to just buy an iced coffee.
But I was coming up to the parking lot and saw the drive thru was filled with like 10 cars. I couldn’t help but think of the cattle resemblance of the cars lined up ready to buy mass made animal feed.
Fuck it.
I parked my car. Left it running. And told my kid to “Wait here babe”, as I ran in to the nasty food wannabe “restaurant” to get my lousy iced coffee.
But wait. I’m standing in line and looking around. What do I see? A lady with a mic running around bagging gross prepackaged microwaved nauseating food in a bag. A couple of people in the “back” microwaving nasty-patties and wrapping them up in a cheap ass wrapper just to throw down their “shoot” as to define it is “READY TO EAT!”
The orange juice came out of a machine. They just pressed a button with a recycled paper cup thrown underneath it. It released just enough juice for the paper cup to hold.
Everyone ran around like the world was ending. Run. Scurry. Fast. Go. Money money money!! Make the “food”. Throw it in a bag. Get it out the window. Move on to the next person.
Eat the cowfood. Divulge in the repugnance. Yum Yum Yum. Eat me. I’m a pre-packaged horrid over processed nastiness that has nothing to do with the cows, pigs, or chickens that I’m assuming at some point were killed for this madness.
Frozen, horrible, deep-fried, and vulgar. Fuck me in the ass you uneatable shit.
It all seemed so robotic. All those people running around. The person running the drivethru. The minimum wage person in the back running the microwave. The other person throwing shit in the deep fryer. The unseen person boxing up the nastiness. The other unseen person mass killing the a foreseen “animal” that originates from the disgusting shit we choose to put in our mouths.
Not my mouth. Too nauseating man.
Although that said, I’m not a McDonalds Nazi. Meaning I’ll treat my kid once or twice a month. In slight moderation the shit won’t kill you. I think I just psyched myself out to be disgusted by it all so I won’t eat it. Because in reality, most of it actually does TASTE good.
The shot at hand? Me being a total health hypocrite and putting a cigarette in my mouth in my bathroom. Then I proceeded to smoke it and take a self-portrait.
What’s worse? The crabby patty or the cancer stick?
The album below? A minimalist indie rock masterpiece. It’s catchy and cool and singable. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to bop their head and think about how rad life is.

2000th image uploaded to my stream :] Taken at Brighton, Sept 2009
Today I went to Brighton with some very lovely fellas called 84mm who were playing in Concorde 2 this afternoon. I first met them a couple of weeks ago at the Dopamine show in Cardiff and was invited to the show today. After their set - they're pretty damn good live btw, should check them out - we went down to the beach and after debating it for a while decided YES we were going in the sea. Sometimes, just sometimes, I kinda slightly regret my bright ideas the second I suggest them. aha! But I've wanted to do more pics in the sea with a band and today was amazingly hot, so I rolled up the jeans and put some flip flops on and in we went....with one of my light stands and an audience on the beach. Surprisingly the water was quite warm...and a good job too because I got SOAKED and had to drive home 120 miles with a wet bum! Some decisions turn out good though....this is the result.
Wayyyy over processed but I love how it makes the water look like liquid gold. Was an awesome evening sky too.
Special thanks to Ollie for his steady feet and his helping hand.
Check the band out at www.myspace.com/84mm
Strobist: 430 EX II band right
Want to add that this pic was probably inspired (I say probably because ever since I saw his pic I've loved it AND I keep thinking about it now too) by a shot from a photographer called Glenn Karlsen who you should defo check out. My pics don't even nearly compare to some of his. www.flickr.com/people/glennkarlsen/

One of a resident pair living at the Cheetah Conservation Fund volunteer dining hall / kitchen.
Taken as a JPG and processed (over processed?) in Topaz Sharpen AI.
I took 33 shots on the way home at this location. This was the first one.
Got home, got it in PhotoShop & tried various tweaks but they all made it look over processed.
So here it is straight out of the camera with no process.
Note to self: Try less hard!
This is a great example of how I used to over-process my shots when I was starting out last summer.
Discovery Park is the largest park in the city of Seattle. Formely a military base that operated during WWII, it is now one of my favorite place to go for that 'out of town' feeling when I only have an evening or so. Miles and miles of trails run through the huge park.
At the north-western tip of the park sits an old lighthouse. I don't think it works anymore, but I've always wanted to capture it with a beautiful sunset behind. After spending the day canoeing around Lake Washington, I headed to Discovery Park, as the clouds and sky looked as if they might combine for a wonderful sunset. I hiked in about 1.5 miles, and got set up for this shot. I battled with an old chain link fence that runs around the lighthouse. I'm new to photoshop, or I would try to get rid of it somehow, but I haven't got those skills yet, so for now it stays....ugly and in the way. I really wanted these flowers in the foreground to compliment the wonderful colors the sky was radiating, but was having a hard time keeping them sharp as it was windy and this was a 2 second exposure. You will notice some flowers are sharper than others due to this.
One of the best sunsets I have witnessed over the Puget Sound in a while, and I'm so glad I was there to see and try to capture it. I hope you enjoy.
This kookaburra was not symmetrical enough, so I helped it along! A Sliders Sunday submission, where over-processing is encouraged.
On a recent night-drive down to Southern Colorado, we were disappointed to find a layer of clouds all but blocking the best part of the view. Fortunately patience paid off just before twilight with this view showing a thin layer of clouds (illuminated from light pollution) in front of some pretty good Milky Way details. This composite image was taken below West Spanish Peak in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains of southern Colorado.
It's never too late to improve on a previous post... I liked the details on my last Milky Way shot but it felt a bit over processed. And so this comp came out for a little playing to see if I could get a better, more balanced result.

But this is what I did to my photo back in 2008. A little too much over processing... Smile, ladies.
I snapped this as the engine rolled by me. It is just awesome to watch these machines do their thing. I purposely over-processed this one a bit to bring out all the details that I could. I think it almost has a 3-D look to it.
This photo became quite controversial one. I posted it on the one of the Facebook groups I am a member and people said that the skin looks very unfavourable, that I should do something about it. I am personally against over processing the pictures, I do not like the faces look like a doll. We all loosing sense of natural beauty and follow the trend of imaginal perfection which is not existing. What are your thoughts about it? Would you correct her skin on nose and around eye as I was suggested? Or should I rather follow my believes and keep it as it is now?
We went strawberry picking today and I think he ate more than he picked. :-) I tried not to over-process this one because I love the cheery lighting. It was gorgeous today.
A submission to Sliders Sunday, where over-processing is encouraged. Two swans feeding on Manly Dam in an autumnal painting-like scene.
With A C.F.I. Schirmer-Nat 28mm. Slightly over-processed for my taste, but the RAW sky was tragically white and boring.
Back in May I spent two days in Vienna running around like a headless chicken. I remember the evening when I made this picture. There was a really nice sky, and I was hurrying to find a good spot. All the nice spots were on the opposite side of the sunset. When I got to this courtyard I had to shoot it even though it was backlit and the building was completely dark. I remember the awesome sky over the buildings, and like all buildings in Vienna, this one was very pretty and nicely kept.
I took 7 shots to capture the full dynamic range. Unfortunately, even the brightest shot did not get good detail on the statue. Photomatix made a mess of the sky because the clouds had moved quite a bit between the first and last exposure. So, I replaced the sky with one from the original shots. It had good details, but the colors didn't match the Photomatix image. So, I blended the sky from the Photomatix shot again, but using the Color blending mode. So the sky has the tones from a clean shot, and the colors from Photomatix. I used Vertus Fluid Mask to do the sky cutout. This was my first try without even reading the manual, so the results are a bit rough.
Given that the fountain didn't look natural, I decided to over-process the whole image, and applied a 30% Nik Tonal Contrast, and high contrast using Pro Contrast and curves with a luminosity mask. I also put a slight graduated coffee filter on the sky to make the clouds more yellow, and burned the stones in the front.
I hope you like it. I had fun working on it. Nicer large.
1. Love is also wonderful, don't get me wrong.
2. I did this so fast I didn't even check my camera settings. duh.
3. I say it all the time...I need to start posting/shooting/etc earlier.
4. I had a lovely, lazy morning and relatively productive afternoon. Yay. me.
5. I love dark imagery, odd I haven't done much recently.
6. Funny how face paint washes easily off your face, yet stains the fuck out of your hands.
7. As I've been told numerous times by my photography comrades, face paint does indeed taste like shit.
8. I love pineapple orange juice. yum.
9. My kid was freaking adorable today. He not only attacked me numerous times, he suddenly started grabbing my hand and leading me to random places in the house. Cuteness....
10. I'm not nearly as positive of a person as I should be. My friends must think I'm a miserable muck.
11. This very well may be the most over-processed piece of crap I've posted this 366. Heh.
12. I'm going to buy a new bedspread. Lime green. I decided.
13. I bought my son the cutest Elmo sound book today. Then I walked around Walmart for 20 mins with "Elmo knows how to use the potty!" playing over and over in Elmo's squeaky voice.
14. I woke up to snow today, then drove home in the evening in some beautiful sunshine. Oh, tempermental Oregon.
15. True Love burns the brightest, But the brightest flames leave the deepest scars.

Late Nov 2019... Oh I have been busy getting ready for the 2020 Storm Chasing season. New truck and new equipment to chase the storm.
2019 Year in Review is being completed I thought I would give you folks some storm chasing Eye Candy back from 2016 while we wait!
Moderate Risk Day in South Central Nebraska. Mid May and I was set and ready to roll. Equipment checked and charged. I was in for another phenomenal storm chase in my back yard of Nebraska!
Someday I will rework this set of images. I still have the originals in Raw format. I way over processed some of these images and they need to be redone. Coming Soon!

This is an old photo from last year, but i played with the saturation brush a little to really bring out the rainbow. I've been doing small modifications on some of my old favorites, since I've been slowly learning more about basic photo processing - though of course I don't want to over-process!
A little over processed this one by Michelle but its a nice shot. L to R Alana, Rachel, Janice and Michelle. Derby 17th May 2019.
First attempt at M45 Pleiades captured last night. Not too happy with my processing skills. Lots more to learn in Photoshop. It's my First attempt at taking subs that are longer than 30s, it's nice to have a Mount that has the Ooomph to give me longer captures! :)
I did manage 200s unguided with no star trails, but didn't want to tempt fate. so settled on 120s & 60s to attempt to bring out detail.

I know I've over processed this in areas so will have another go soon. Also for the astrophotographers out there who notice. Yes I think I misaligned my DSLR in the focuser tube, as some large stars difraction spikes lean left in the right hand side of the image.
Female American Kestrel (Falco sparverius) SE sector, Thomson Marsh, Kelowna, BC.
I'd like to point out a couple of things in introducing this series.
1. It gives me no pleasure whatsoever to see an animal being consumed by another. I don't even enjoy watching humans eat meat (which, I enjoy consuming myself)....
2. All creatures need to consume food.
3. Raptors kill other creatures, rodents, insects, and even birds. That's how they've evolved over millions of years. Their prey has evolved, too, so that they are not extirpated by their predators, but live in a natural balance with them. Nature works, indeed, in complex ways....
4. Humans are dentally and otherwise physiologically developed to consume animals as well as plants —we're omnivores.
5. Robins eat fish as well as worms, insects, berries. They are omnivores, too. No one sees robins as voracious killers of living things, although at sometimes robins could be described that way, too.
6. For what it's worth, while kestrels are well-known to kill smaller birds, in going on 8 years of observation of Kessie, I have never once seen her do so. Her diet consists of voles and moles and the occasional large insect. She does not hover and dive; she always comes in on an oblique angle from a perch near the prey.
7. These shots were taken on an overcast day late in the afternoon (4:05 PM). Although my eyesight is now back to normal, I saw only a brief movement as I approached the nursery area. As I drew nearer, however,I was able to spot Kessie on this pole located nearest the nursery fence. It took a moment to see what she was doing. I (manually) set my camera up for low light, then walked up to her, talking to her as usual and took the shots. Unfortunately from a photographer's viewpoint, because I have balance issues, I stumbled briefly and she reacted by flying back to a less accessible pole.
8. The resulting images have been processed with care (many would say 'over-processed'); yes, I know they look more like paintings than photos — and that's okay with me.
9. Humans post images of their meals on social media 'all the time'; what would a kestrel do if she had social media? Whoa! Maybe I'm her social media!
Here is the photogenic Flamingo statue in the loop. It's always interesting to return to places that I've photographed before and see if I'm able to come up with unique compositions or ideas around the same structures. In this case, I pulled out the fisheye lens and got up close to a puddle to give a bit of a reflection off of the Flamingo. I think the curve of the fisheye really works well with the curves of this statue.
It's also interesting to go back and reflect on images i've created earlier in photographic career. After I have finally gotten over the cringe-worthy over-processing, I find solace in knowing that I have come a long way as a photographer. One day, I'll likely look at today's shot and think how awful it is (it's why I have a hard time printing any of my own photographs), but it's all part of maturing as a photographer and I'll always have room to improve my skills at photography.

Clouds.
The SOOC version of this is in the collage in the comments. Since I'm not feelin' the pod thing, I over-processed. And I like it!
The weather people were freaking out about the "big storm" about to hit So Cal ..um, not so much. My friends on Twitter and FB had status updates last night and were freaking out. I wanted to pull my hair out. Living in So Cal, have people not learned that "big storm" means "rain-for-a-few-hours" and then showers? Aye yie yie!
We went for sunset, but didn't see the sun the whole time. Just some very ominous cloud. But that still works; adding drama to the scene.
I've really struggled to get these to look right. The white balance in particular. So at this point, I think they look a bit over-processed. I might have to look at some kind of Lightroom for landscapes tutorial(s), as I just seem to struggle with them every time.
Would be interested to get some feedback on these - Particularly if you have any processing suggestions. I can happily take criticism too.

Here on the ranch, there is a very large barn where horses are stabled and trained. This inside view shows half of the barn where some of the stalls the arena (on the left) are located. On the other side (off to the left of the arena, there is another aisle with stalls on both sides. I guess you could say that it is also an insider's view because we live out here on the ranch.
This image was created with Photomatrix HDR software using three images taken on a tripod (an underexposed, a normal and an overexposed one). While the doorway looks very bright, grass is still visible through it.
This is one of half a dozen HDR images that I've posted so far. The style that I'm developing as I'm learning to use Photomatrix is one that renders more natural looking images as opposed to those that appear to be over processed... just a personal taste, I guess.

This lovely tulip looked really boring when I first saw it so I think I might have over processed it to make it look better!
