Since I had a lot of fun playing with textures in photoshop yesterday, I thought I would keep it up today and see what else I could come up with.
I slightly desaturated this shot to add to the monotonous feeling of an office and then started playing around with textures.
I wish I had a little more light near the top of the frame, but you work with what you have and this is what I had this morning.
I hope everyone has had a good day.

Advertised as in 'excellent condition' but if your definition of 'excellent condition' means a working camera then it's not. The shutter is broke.
I think this is a new government initiative to get more people into work.
These women get paid to spend their wages on clothes, which they later return for a refund and buy more clothes with - it keeps the economy running smoothly without the need for costly manufacturing and distribution.
The men are just there to carry stuff.
The biggest dung beetles I've ever seen!

I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, and having moved from professional Nikon equipment to consumer bodies and lenses, I travel light less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 22.893+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

**** This frame was chosen on August 7th 2018 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE (Highest Ranking: #80. This is my 103rd photograph to be selected, which for me is both amazing and exciting, as I never view my images as worthy compared to some of the awesome photography out there. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.
Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to every one of the 17.950 Million people who have visited, favourite and commented on this and all of my other photographs here on my FLICKR site. *****

Professional landscape photographers usually talk about re-visiting the familiar locations and how photographers may actually benefit from it. In my surroundings, I have three or four locations where I go for a shoot. And I give my best to find something new to shoot when I’m there.
But that's easier said than done. I don’t know precisely why, but I’m often drawn to the same compositions that I already photograph. Is it familiarity, or maybe the comfort of knowing something I already photograph is working?
Luckily, or not, nature is changing just like everything in life is. So the scene that was looking in one manner doesn't look the same in just a few months. And I’m not talking just about changing the colours of the leaves, there is much more than that, like fallen trees and similar disruptions or shrubs that have grown in front of the tree so much that the scene is not shootable anymore, and so on…
Also, the light and fog can totally change the scene. So, you can always find a way to be new, original and improve your photography.
When I’m out and about photographing in nature, I always, always, previsualise and plan my compositions, at least roughly in the outlines. I never go with the flow. That is how I am, an overthinker.
It was not easy to get to this place. I was in one part of the forest, planning to go on the bridge into another part of the forest. But I delayed the crossing.
After I finished photographing my main part of the forest for the morning, I felt relief and satisfaction with the photos I’ve got. Out of curiosity, I started walking on a trail that I usually don’t go on, to see if the road is maybe leading to something interesting.
Walking like that, I didn’t see much in the near distance because the fog was too thick. Suddenly, I bumped into these guys, and that is how this photo was made.
Now, from time to time, I tend to find some scenes, when I’m in a familiar location, that I didn’t see in my previous outings. At first, I feel kinda of surprised that I didn’t find this scene earlier. But after that feeling passes, the fun part begins, to look for the optimal angle to photograph it.
That was the case with the photo I’m posting now. The atmosphere was going so much in my favour. Dense fog all around, yellow leaves here and there, all reminded me of the dancefloor with the trees being the dancers.
I’m not sure if these trees are planted by people, which I doubt, because of the way they are grouped in pairs. Also, the location is pretty much wild, without any order around.
The music from the riverflow is nearby. Dancing trees are swaying in the rhythm of it. And the yellow leaves are falling on the ground like confetti on the dancefloor.
Yet, at the same time, everything is quiet - a perfect harmony. You just need to dive into the feeling of complete fulfilment and relaxation that scene brings.

Pic from last night’s trans support group. This is my “professional look”! I sent this pic to my wife and she responded by saying she thought “it’s the best I’ve ever looked”. Gotta love a vote of confidence like that!
A modern business headshot for a female professional.
Lit with a large rectangular softbox as key light and an eyelighter below. White cardboard as a fill, Striplight as a kicker and a strobe on the background for a nice and smooth gradient.
