Hoping everyone has a fantastic day! Shot for CC Weekly challenge - reflections.

When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat.

A Balinese yogi strikes a meditative pose as light rays stream through the forest canopy.

Today was a glorious day with a real feeling of spring in the air, and myself and Caitlin had a stroll along the canal.

 

Now, I know this is yet another 'reflections in the canal' shot, but the light was so lovely I had to try and capture it. Indulge me...

Rays of sunlight create a pattern of light across the body of a male great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) as he glides below the surface off of Mexico's Isla de Guadalupe. Depending on the position of the sun, patterns of light can take on some interesting appearances. In this case, the shark looks almost "electrified" to me. The original shot was in 2:3 aspect ration in landscape orientation, but after playing around with some different crops, the 1:1 square format seemed to work best. I have posted a color version of this crop, as well. Would love some feedback on which version you prefer.

...with most of my photographs, the subject appears as a found object, something discovered, not arranged by me. I usually have an immediate recognition of the potential image, and I have found that too much concern about matters such as conventional composition may take the edge off the first inclusive reaction.

Another old shot from probably 3 years back. This was an awesome sunset at Pine Knoll Shores NC that produced some beautiful light and some great photo opportunities. I have shared a couple shots from this sunset on my stream but this is another that I really like. I thought it was really neat how this thick cloud bank divided the sunlight above and below.

My technique is alway the same:

Three exposures -2EV, 0, +2EV and then temperature adjustement using Lightroom and layering with luminosity mask using photoshop. Removal of distracting stuff with the stamp tool or patch tool. High pass filter to enhance details. Then saturation, contrast selectively control, dodge and burn where need...

DRI stand for Dynamic Range Increase. Three RAW files are used to achieve this. Rather than using a software like Photomatix for instance, I simply use mask to blend, my own way, the light, dark and normal shot with Photoshop and Lightroom.. To me, It looks more natural than the usual HDR treatment that I would normally applied.

Ma technique est toujours la même:

Trois prises de vue -2EV, 0, +2EV. Ensuite ajustement de la température de couleur avec Lightroom et usage de calques et masques de luminosités avec Photoshop. Retrait d'éléments de distraction avec l'outil tampon. Filtre High pass pour le rehaussement des détails. Ensuite saturation et contraste ajustés de façon sélectives et locales. Dodge and burn là où requis...

DRI vient de l'anglais Dynmic Range Increase, qui pourrait se traduire par étendue dynamique améliorée. Les même 3 fichiers RAW entrent dans la composition d'un DRI. Plutôt que de se servir d'un logiciel comme Photomatix qui fait tout le travail, je me sers plutôt de masques pour filtrer l'éclairage dans photoshop et Lightroom. De mon point de vue, cette façon de faire donne une image plus naturel que le traitement HDR que j'employais auparavant.

Sun rays through the mist created by Devi's Falls, Pokhara, Nepal

Upon our last visit with my wife's grandmother, I couldn't resist trying to capture the essence of her beautifully expressive hand gestures.

As the first snow storm of winter was clearing out around the north rim of the Grand Canyon, I went out looking for some interesting light in the surrounding forests. As the clouds broke on the fog lifted, rays of light would pierce the canopy of trees providing some amazing scenes. When I noticed a few deer making their way through the area I quietly waited for the perfect opportunity to snap off a few frames. This deer graciously walked right into the center of the rays of light. My only complaint is the tree coming out of it's back. "Never put a telephone pole coming out of the top of someones head," keeps running through my head. How much do you think it takes away from the scene? Thanx for any comments and feedback!!!

Rays of light illuminate a great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) through the blue waters off of Isla de Guadalupe. The light passing through the surface creates a variety of patterns along the shark's body.

My second palladium print! First one had a few issues and I still don't have good digital negatives to work with. The original photo is on 4x5 HP5+

www.flickr.com/photos/zboumeester/5992590814/in/set-72157...

 

The original negative was scanned, edited, and then printed ( inverted to create a negative) on Pictorico OHP 8x10 transparency. The final print is on Arches Platine paper. 100% palladium until I get a great negative and know what I am doing.

 

Used the sun as my light source to expose the final print. This one was exposed for 20 minutes. I used 30 drops of solution A and C to coat the paper.
