HIGHEST ON EXPLORE #4
Hi everyone :)
hope everyone has had a great weekend so far:)
still no new images, so a reprocessed image for today:)
processed this a little different using and i am quite happy with how this one turned out:)
hope you like it as well?
learned a couple of new things lately, have been reading a bit and i try out new approaches when i think they can benefit my images:)
getting alot of flickrmails with questions about how i process my images, and i thought i could say a bit about it:)
filters used for this shot was a nd8 screw on, Lee filters 0.9 and 0.75 soft grads stacked together.
used two shot for this one, manually blended in a little brighter fg area around the rocks sticking up, giving the image the fg light that it needs:) they where "developed" in Acr to my liking and saved as 16 bit tiffs.
when i got the pictures blended the way i want it i use colorefex, using the filters Brilliance/Warmth, skylight filter and White neutralizer:)) i just experiment until i get the colors i like:)
i also add one layer of the image in B&W and use soft light in blend mode and adjust opacity to my liking:)
after that i use Noisewear Proffesional for sharpening and denoising, here i also "experiment" until i get the result i like:)
and to finish thing i use luminosity mask, sometimes only one colors other times depending on what colors and areas i want to "pop" up:))
lol i know i suck at explaining:)
and of course i straighten the horizon, crop and resize for web before posting:))
well well, hope this can be of help to anyone:)
anyways i wanna thank you for the response on my last shot:))
take care and have a great rest of the weekend:))

كَمْ هيَ أنَآنيَة ذآكرَتيْ ،،
تستَعيد نَشَآطهَآ وقْت ألمِي -
تَتَذكرْ هَذآ وذَآكْ ،، لتَستَمتعَ بِ ألمِي !
فأبكِي أنَآ ، وتَضحَك هيَ الأخرَى !
مَنْ يقتَنِي منّيْ ذَآكرَة !
تلقَبْ بذَآكرة الحَنينْ ؟؟
قَديمَة بعضْ الشَيء !!
ومتَمردة قلِيلاً !!
نَشيطَة كثيراَ !!

While in the garage one day, I saw this Potter Wasp on the brick work of the garage wall. With my 60mm Macro lens was able to capture this awesome close-up showing the compound eye and other details of this Wasp. Hope Y'all like it. Lol.

hmmmmmmm not sure at all about this?
well i leave it be here for now, i see already a couple of things i wanna redo about this:)) lol there might be a little noise here and there and the exposure all around is not my best work but i call it an experiment, ok?
the foreground is a sculpture made of a finnish artist and it is called "seven magic points", it is made of iron and the reds on it is rust because it is located so close to the sea:))
PLEASE do not view it large:)) lol
the longexpos are a new thing to me and i only done it a couple of times and this might have been a little to long? i feel i loose alll control when doing these.
but hopefully some of you might like it?
thanks alot for stopping by leaving comments and faves, much appreciated.))
take care and have a lovely weekend:))
hopefully i will be getting out tonight shooting some longexpos by the sea or perhaps some startrails by a lake?
cheers:))

~ I am sick and tired of the constant Flickr changes, Recent Activity does not exist ... I accidentally see comments under the photos, but I have no information from Flickr, please don't blame me for not visiting your photostream .........................
Handheld from the bottom of a rushing creek. I went in thinking the shot would be perfect from up above on the bridge behind me but after some exploring...
It's the unintended shot that makes my day.
This wood duck got so close to me that I was able to make a nice portrait!

Our view of the Pacific Ocean from Beards Hollow Overlook. A bluff north of North Head Light House at Cape Disappointment. This view point is overlooking Beards Hollow south of Seaview.
History note: Captain Lewis & Clark reached the Pacific Ocean near modern-day Seaview, Washington, November 15, 1805.
It's a simple view of pure nature landscaped with beautiful evergreen trees, a beach shore when tide is out is reachable by foot or vehicle. Today, it was 115f in town, here 66f key weather with low cloud marine haze over the ocean...it was the perfect day to cool off.
Thank you all for your kind visits much appreciated..have a wonderful day. I'm so excited to finding this made Explore #220, July 23rd ~ thank you so much!!
