Saw this at a local garden on a visit with my son. It is an HDR image, and then crossed processed on Picnik.
Here was my process for the Ty Nant water shot:
1. One strobe above and in front of the bottle, bounced off my umbrella. This looks terrible! The blue is hardly noticeable, the reflection totally knocks out the label, and the label on the back of the bottle (marked with the *) makes a horrible white mark.
2. One light on the right of the bottle, bounced off the umbrella. I also cut out a piece of paper the shape of the bottle to put behind it. This bounces light through the glass, showing the blue. Unfortunately, you can see all the details of the umbrella in the reflection, and that label on the back is still there. also, the flash from my camera that I use to trigger the strobe makes an annoying reflection (marked with the *). I soak off the label, and cover my flash with a piece of cloth. That way it is still bright enough to trigger the strobe, but doesn't show up on the bottle.
3. Light below and behind the bottle, bounced off the black (!) backdrop. I removed the white paper behind the bottle for this, since it was unnecessary. I used a long exposure so that the lights from the windows on the sides and in front of the bottle would light up the label. Unfortunately, this makes for ugly reflections on the sides of the bottle.
4. One light behind and below bottle, bounced off backdrop. This is beautiful -- I love black-line glass photography, and the blue is gorgeous. Unfortunately for a product shot, the label is way too dark. And I don't have another light to snoot on it from the front. Have to go a different direction.
5. Light on the right side again, this time shone directly through a large plastic tub. That disperses the light enough that it makes a nice clean long white highlight. The paper is behind the bottle again, and I dropped the coins behind the bottle. But the paper behind the bottle is wrinkled, and that shows (marked with the *) and it tapers at the top of the neck where the water stops, which you can see. I cut a new piece of paper.

I find drawing posed pictures straight onto the computer pretty horrible. There are too many choices, and the slick feel of the tablet leads to hasty, speculative strokes that go nowhere. I prefer to render a sketch in ballpoint pen then work it up.
Usually I don't show my process steps.. I don't know what came up to me to do so...
FYI, it takes much of my time to find the correct theme of a picture.. This one spacifically took 3 days to finish!

For those of you who really know me, I am not huge on post processing. I am getting use to LightRoom for 2 reasons. My husband wants to buy it for us, but wont for himself only. Therefore he is really encouraging me to fall in love with it! Reason number 2, I have to do SOME, however limited, post work, to add sharpening and all for the RAW files. Pretty much the basics. On a rare occasion, the image looks worse then the original and I just keep the as is image. But in cases like this, I was able to save the other wise unsaveable! What do I mean? The foreground was pretty much a silhouette. And the image before this, was kind of pinked out due to the Cokin filter. So, with out the filter, I get no foreground and with the grad filter, its all pink! For this image, I played around with the in post processing graduated filter! You can pretty much tell where I did the separation, because of the grouping of trees, but I still think it worked out none the less. I feel like the dark grouping of trees added to the misty rise of the sun.
I am not sure this is to peoples liking, but I like it and thats what matters, right? :) What I love the most is the golden rays that are streaming through the foreground. This one, unlike yesterdays similar image, is so golden! And after all, a sunrise should be golden! And that is why I am happy with this, perhaps over processed, processed image. I sure do hope you enjoy!

I've made these charts because I couldn't find any reliable information on how to expose a film for this "reverse xpro". From these results, I like something between -1 and 0 best - it may however be different with other films.
Image transfer on watercolor paper done using Citrasolv cleaner. It's very addictive making these little transfers.

I've never really thought about where the word Posy comes from...it's kind of a strange word for flower. This is nothing special...another from the archives. Have a great Sunday. HSS!

Week #2 Square and Processing
Examples of different processing results. Depending on your experience, these can be done manually or with reset actions in image processing software (I use Photoshop).
(top left) Cross processing uses layers, contrast and variations in color balance to give a "yellowish green" hue to the image. You can do it manually, but Photoshop has an action (macro) that is simple and quick. I've used it on anything from landscapes to portraits in the past.
(bottom left) High Dynamic Range was processed using Photomatrix, a popular and proven application available online. Some cameras have in-built HDR options. Again, it can be used on a wide range of images and the intensity can be dialed up or down. Some HDR images are quite stunning but processing can also be over cooked (an HDR term!). Flickr is full with different results and it's up to personal taste what you prefer.
(top right) Black and white/Mono can be achieved by using fast and easy single click "GreyScale" or you can manipulate the histogram to isolate color bands and keep tighter control over the result. Curves can be also applied to control contrast.
(bottom right) Orton processing is a controlled blurring or softening of the image achieved by combining 3 layers in Photoshop. Again, it comes to personal taste to apply Orton to images. It can be applied over the whole image or used to soften different areas.
Enjoy...and good luck with your processing.
Experimented with some cross processing in Aperture.
