This started as a glorious but cliche sunset photo from a cruise that Mister and I just got back from....I don't remember everything I did to it in Photoshop but I really like the result. Hope you have a wonderful day. HSS!

I dug deep into the archives for a shot of a dahlia that I took in the spring and then did way too much with it to get this. HSS!

With a little 'twirl' and a 'fresco' touch up 😀

safety shot. overprocess. call it a day.

Reaching into the archives...a shot from our cruise in October - as we were leaving Portland, ME, there was a lovely lighthouse. My shots of it were pretty boring, so here's one all jazzed up for Slider Sunday. HSS!

Or "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn"

Just a quiet street that most people don't know about.

Loch Restil at Rest and be Thankful.

Shot taken from Ben Donich.

The highlight of last night's wander down the shore at Dumbarton.

9 shot HDR.

MILKY WAY

I went down to the Lovell Canyon fire to see the fire damage. I used the silhouette from Lovell with an overprocessed Milky Way image I captured a few weeks ago. =)

Youtube is currently sponsoring a project called "It Gets Better," and it has to do with the recent influx of suicides across the nation over the past few weeks. This is as much as I can do for the project.

Overprocessing for the win?

Don't you hate when people overprocess everything?

Here's the spillway at Devil's Den state park in NW Arkansas again. I threw everything I have at this. Processed in Photomatix then Machinery HDR Effects. I thought the rock and the water kinda looked cool all overcooked and stuff.

Non-overprocessed shot below taken just to the left of the big rock.

This ultimate zoom-in fragment is possibly the best of the series? Simplification at work ;) ))

I had a lot of fun with this and couldn't decide which Overprocessed photo to submit.

This is a composite of The River Street Inn in Savannah, Georgia; portraits of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean from the Malt Shoppe in Stowe, Vt, a faceless mannequin from Stowe; and the cover album portrait of Joni Mitchell taken in the Woodstock Museum in Bethel, NY.

The Skeleton, guarding the Exit, was shot at Industry City in Brooklyn around Halloween.

I played around with Hue and Saturation, and applied a mild Watercolor effect. It was nice to let my imagination run wild without regard to proper color, detail, or exposure.

You can compare this with the original photo directly to the right in my "Overprocessed" Album:

HSoS!!

Playing with my prototype flash delay and beam trigger. The interesting thing is that the flash duration was too long, so I got motion blur on parts of the little mini-droplets. In this one, the surface of the water is also very turbulent - I had just increased the drip rate, and I was getting about 8 or 9 droplets between flashes...

Oh, and of course, in the tradition of turbojoe, I way overprocessed this. It's not that interesting a shot on its own, just a test of my homemade hardware...

I think I have been taken over by this overprocessing thing. This is the third time I have done it with yellow (fifth overall). Three aspects to play with, the temperature, the vibrance, the saturation, and the results have never disappointed me.

The Black Affair

Since it is Saturday, it's time to groove to some music..

Jhoom Barabar Jhoom

P.S. Incidentally, Jhoom means "To groove"

The lens used is an Enna Werk München Correlar 1:2.9 f=8cm triplet from a Dacora Digna 6x6 camera (1954). Photo taken at f/5.6 with front element focus set to 4 m (focused with an Asahi Pentax M42 helicoid extension tube).

The image is less overprocessed than it looks; sunlight through a thin cloud cover and the reflections on the leaves made for an interesting effect that is enhanced by a B&W conversion using only the green and blue channels in Photoshop’s channel mixer.

This is an over processed upload reworked for today's theme.

I'm open for critique, but keep in mind it's just a hand-held snapshot with 800 iso. It was quite dark. I wanted to catch the sunset, but it was too cold and I decided to head back home. Next time... ;)

I know it's overprocessed...

Happy "Looking close... on Friday!" :-)

... and many thanks for your views, faves and comments!

Morning hike with few friends to a place called "Mozirska koča" (Mozirje mountain house).

Panorama taken with Galaxy Note 3 and processed in Snapseed. O.k., maybe a bit overprocessed, but I did PP at te top of our route and due to strong sun I didn't see good on my display... :)

Playing around with the photo of my knitting project because I love the colors. Hope you have a wonderful day. HSS!

No one has ever seen the surface of Jupiter, but this is what it could look like. But in reality it's just a photo of some q-tips heavily over-prosessed with filters, textures and experiments HSOS !!!

I have many more from this shoot that I would like to get uploaded. Also, I've just started to play around with some of the options in Picasa, so please forgive any overprocessing!

I liked this initially because of the change in texture at the join in the wire, but when looking at it in Lightroom the weird shapes in the background bokeh intrigued me. I edited first in mono but the bokeh looked fake, smoke like, and the image seemed overprocessed (maybe this is?). Anyway, I liked how this turned out in the end, odd shapes and all!

HFF

After a fresh snow fall - a walk in the park, a little camera movement (ICM) and a few sliders moved a bit farther than they should have been (HSS).

Smile on Saturday: Over-processed

In real life, this is a scene of white and gentle greys and browns. I felt a bit reluctant at first to distort it -- poor Mother Nature! -- but it's growing on me. I do like purple!

'Baroque' On Black

The cage almost went to the tip the other day - I couldn't quite part with it. It's been photographed a few times over the past decade or two with various occupants.

This shot is technically off but I decided to process the shit out of it and post anyway.

Maybe the kitten will be my next caged victim (model).

Played with this picture a few times - latest version with a "bit" of sliding. Used DAP (Dynamic Auto Painter) this time around (Golden_Age_Finer#001).

For - Happy Slider Sunday - HSS!

An attempt at over-processing a picture - on purpose.

A photo of a sculpture with a photo of some yarrow or some other yellow-y goodness. Hope you have a wonderful day. HSS!

After the Librodo Way, I told myself not to overprocess the photos I took during the workshop since I believe in the essence of its purity. But since our shoot was based on a concept, I'm going to break that promise and try some processing that would further justify our concept.

Thanks for viewing!

Over-Processed Theme -- (Grainy/Filtered/Framed)

Smile on Saturday

overprocessed at iPiccy.com.

While taking a wrong turn somewhere in central Tennessee we stumbled onto this place called The Appalachian Center for Craft near Smithville, TN. It operates as part of Tennessee Tech University and is basically an art school. It has a beautiful campus which was in full autumn glory. We parked and enjoyed lunch at one of the picnic tables there and I shot some of the trees while my wife checked out some of the exhibits and classrooms. It's a nice spot and definitely worth checking out if in the area.

Although this tree was beautiful just like it was I decided to do something more artistic with it.

Smile-on-Saturday ... Over-processed

What a wonderful life I've had! I only wish I'd realized it sooner.

I was searching for a beautiful forest for a longer period of time and actually I gave up..BUT I searched on google maps and BAAM! About 10km away from my house I found such a magical forest!! *_* I fell in love with it and I'm sorry guys, but I think I'll post more forest shots in the future ;) I was so happy to find it I can't tell you!! Yaay!! :)

Do you think this is overprocessed? If this is so - I only wanted to recreate the feeling I had that afternoon ;)

Way overprocessed with blurred and distorted layers with a solid color layer thrown in for good measure. Hope you have a wonderful Sunday. HSS!

I think they overprocessed this one. In trying to reduce the noise level, and bring out the uniform colours, the image looks too soft to me

... and can only slightly achieve it through going wild on the sliders

Photo from Mamiya/Phase One (earlier in my photostream) subjected to a further stage of simple processing. No AI, this is straightforward post.

Yipes, I'm pretty sure that I remember this was once a pretty shot.

Weathered duct tape, used to repair a car.

Processed way too much, but it's just an image.
