A group of well-dressed women crossing a treacherous suspension bridge in Bukittinggi. My typical trekking wardrobe does not photograph nearly as nicely...

 

The photo is not crisp, and it's overprocessed, but I liked the contrast of the colors enough to make it one of my favorites from this trip.

For me not tulips are the sensation of spring but the young beech leaves.

Besides, this is not a very common view: less than 1% of palatinate forest trees are firs.

 

Boring technical note: two phone shots in RAW, portrait orientation, stitched.

I tried this insanely novel thing called "Not Overprocessing the Crap Out of My Photos". It looks pretty nice.

 

Beer had at the Waverly Brewing Co. in Baltimore.

It's time for another photowalk...this time we're bailing on downtown Phoenix and hitting up downtown Tempe, the Mill Avenue Bridges, the Light Rail and Tempe Town Lake! A gorgeous place to shoot, I'm really hoping we get some clouds at sunset because that can be pretty spectacular. I took the photos in this post on December 29th, 2009. Both back in my overprocessing HDR days, but they hold some fond memories for me. I mean, I just left the house to go shoot that night, it had been planned a week before, and when I arrived at this little parking lot for the photo above, the sky was already changing colors and I rushed to capture one of the more amazing sunsets I've ever seen here. Just a great night.

 

SOooo...here are the details of the walk:

Downtown Tempe Photowalk

When: June 10th, 2011

 

Time: 6:45pm until whenever

 

Where: I'm choosing this parking lot on the north side of the lake because of the great views of the city it offers looking south. Then we can walk over the bridges and shoot in Tempe. This MAY change, so make sure to email me or call me to verify. Map of the location.

 

Cost: Nothing...maybe food, coffee, whatever.

 

What to Bring: The camera gear you want...tripods, backpacks, maybe some bottled water or a snack.

52 Weeks in 2024 - Week 31 - Over processed

 

SLIDER SATURDAY 10/52

 

There are times that I find extensive post processing evokes a very different feel or mood from an image and sometimes I like the result.

 

Being more of a purist with photography, I seldom post these overprocessed images but I decided for 2012, I would post those images on what I have termed "Slider Saturday". These will be images that I have extensively moved the sliders in post processing.

If it is not immediately clear, this guy is riding a bicycle rickshaw. The contrast between the poor driver pedaling with all his might and completely relaxed pose and mood of his passenger was just too much! Unfortunately I was taking this from a moving car's window (and with an iPhone too!), and was too close to them to fit the whole thing into a frame...thus the blur and only a hint of a driver. But I still like how the passenger guy turned out...you can tell he is enjoying himself.

 

I bumped up saturation here and also processed with another iPhone app which added this '"scratchy" look. And then another one for the texture. And yet another one for the border. Lots of phone "sliding". HSS, everyone!

A Summers morning down by the river at Kirkby Lonsdale. Images are intentionally overprocessed to give a HDR feel to them

This is Cascais in Portugal, a popular getaway destination among Lisboetas. Portugal is at times very beautiful! This was one of those times.

 

The title is because this was a horribly shaky handheld HDR. The exposures aren't even close to each other really. You can see artifacts from the shakiness all over the picture. Despite this I couldn't resist sharing this gorgeous location with all y'all. :-)

not so sure about this direction, but I'll throw it our there.

FYI: if you look at any word long enough, it looks wrong. I had to ask the H how to spell Saturday. ~~~HPPS!

I know, I went a little nuts with the color, but this is a museum of modern art after all and "little nuts" should not surprise anyone...it may be even expected. So here.

OK.. It took a lot of courage to do this selfie, its something i'm not comfortable with. took some shots but they didn't seem 'whimsical' enough. i hope this selfie makes the cut. :)

Went to the city yesterday with James and a couple of his friends, so I have some stuff to upload. Yay. This is one, I usually don't overprocess my pictures, but I just HAD to do something about this fountain one. :]

Many thanks to Red Zena, who convinced me that HDR has a place beyond strangely overprocessed & stylized results.

 

Surprisingly, this was a very difficult capture due to the extreme range of light. It's a blend of three images using Photomatix. The original images were exposed using a circular polarizer to enhance the blue sky. Neat Image was used to reduce noise although there was very little. Finally, DXO Optics Pro was used to reduce severe keystoning. Yeah and you thought this was just a snapshot, right?

just a slight colour adjustment!

This started as a shot of the ceiling of one of the buildings at Topkapi Palace (I don't remember which one it was)...I enhanced the colors a bit and then distorted it a bunch. Hope you have a great Sunday. HSS

Todays challenge on dailyshoot.com was "Stairs and ramps lead the eye and take us places. Make a photo of a stair or ramp that you see today."

 

Didnt have much time to get shots today so took a couple of shots of the stairs by the lightrail stop as I walked past it tonight, wasnt a great shot so tried to give it a dark moody feel with processing to save it, not sure I did but its all I got for todays challenge

I might have overprocessed this one - the data was so nice. Bortle 2 skies make for easy processing.

For Slider's Sunday I am putting in an overprocessed HDR of this abandoned, but once well loved, tractor.

 

It was sitting in the weeds behind a fallen down barn, looking a bit forlorn.

 

So, here it is! I put this one up for Sliders Sunday because my husband thought it was totally cool! lol =)

 

So Happy Sliders Sunday everyone! HSS!

Not had much time to get out and take photos recently so thought I would go through some more old stuff and play around with it. It's a crazy brash city so decided it was ok to produce a brash image of it. Won't be to everybody's taste I know but I quite like it!

 

Looks best large and on black so press `L` on your keyboard to see it that way...

So obviously I lied about stopping my experiments with textures and processing (overprocessing?). While I do realize that these images aren't "photography" in it's purest sense, I really like some of the images I've created, this one in particular.

 

I'm always curious to see what you out there think. What works, what doesn't, so keep the comments coming. Thanks for looking and sharing.

 

Special thanks to JoesSistah's for the textures, they're beautiful.

 

View On Black

I just never know when to stop! Ooooh - what does this one do??

While visiting Scotland during a recent trip with three fellow photographers, I was fortunate enough to be able to capture a moody sunset from the top of Arthur's Seat, the main peak of grass-covered hills that form Holyrood Park in Edinburgh. The climb to the peak was steep and exhausting, but the view from the top of the 822ft hill made it worth the effort, with Edinburgh Castle rising above the city and flanked by the spires of St Giles' and St Mary's Cathedrals. Rain, cloud and haze had covered the city throughout the afternoon and early evening, but shortly before sunset the sun appeared from behind the clouds, covering the northern half of the city with a soft glow and carving an outline along the hills on the horizon. It was one of those moments that can't be predicted, and the kind that's a true joy to photograph.

 

This image is a combination of eight exposures which were combined in Photoshop using luminosity masks along with a Pen Tool selection to isolate and brighten Salisbury Crags, the hill in the immediate foreground. I tried to apply my brighter exposures with the intention of emphasising detail in the cityscape, but not so much as to lose the ambience of the scene, which was the aspect that delighted me most. With this in mind, I kept the final image slightly underexposed, focusing instead on the warm tones along the hills and the glow that was bathing the city in light.

 

I felt that only minor changes were required when colour-grading the image. The palette was predominantly made of warmer tones, and I tried not to veer too far from this, using only a Selective Colour adjustment to increase the red and magenta tones in the sky, and a Hue/Saturation adjustment to remove some of the cyan and green casts in the city buildings. My main aim when editing was to strike a balance between preserving the hazy finish in the distance and adding clarity and tonal contrast to the hilltop and buildings in the foreground. I wanted to convey the soft and dreamy atmosphere over the city that evening, but at the same time I wanted the image to remain true to the view from the hilltop (and hopefully to avoid a finish that could seem unnatural or overprocessed). I used Nik plugins to gently increase the tonal contrast, applying the Detail Extractor filter in Colour Efex Pro to emphasise Edinburgh Castle at the centre of the frame, and the Low Key filter to soften the exposure and contrast to the left of the frame, with the intention of guiding viewers' eyes towards the hilltop in the foreground at the same time as the light on the horizon and the highest points across the city.

 

The final result hopefully encapsulates Edinburgh's architecture and natural beauty, and perhaps also the fleeting Scottish weather that can make photographing its scenery both unpredictable and riveting.

Pass this courtyard every now and then - decided that I needed to capture it. Passed the file through a number of different Apps for this final effect.

Fairly recent show. Overprocessed to the max, why not? Yes, just because you can, it does mean you should. Overprocess this, that is.

I couldn't sleep n SL was down so I dug around in my HD, pulled this out n over processed the feck out of it >.<

No, 'X' is not the model, it's for eXtreme (abuse, i.e. overprocessing) - it wouldn't be me if I don't do it to at least one of the shots.

 

BTW, the model is, I think, a 1949 sedan Special Deluxe (any connoisseurs to confirm or correct?)

 

And I promise not to do this to the rest of the images from the 'session' (which lasted 30 seconds on a very cold December day). I'll keep them natural and realistic - soon to come :)

 

Update: 1951 Savoy Deluxe Sedan - according to @dr.electro (see below)

Caught this "Semi" as we were passing it. Not often I get to be the passenger in the back seat, so to relieve boredom I got the cell phone out and "played".

 

Used Prisma: Breakfast filter - all in the iPhone. First for a Painterly effect - then used only a bit of a slide for HSS in Adobe Photoshop Elements.

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

I'm reasonably sure the real reason I stopped at the boat launch on Charlotte Highway was to take this photo.

 

Yeah, this one's overprocessed. But I wanted to bring out all those branches.

This photograph is an outtake from my 2021 photo-a-day project, 365^4.

Please note that all comments with graphics and no criticism will be deleted (graphics with criticism is okay).

Here we have wide field view of the compact blue dwarf galaxy NGC 5253, and its epic central starburst. It is something like a smaller, but slightly closer version of M82. Though NGC 5253 is less famous than M82 I still find it to be quite interesting—visually stunning, even. An image I submitted yesterday shows a very high resolution close-up of the core: flic.kr/p/WMcktQ

 

While this galaxy has been previously processed, I thought it would be better if some older narrowband WFPC2 were used to show off its H-alpha emissions, which are now seen clearly here as a bright pink cloud emanating from around the central area of the galaxy. I tried not to overprocess these clouds, but some might say I have. Still, others may say I didn't take it far enough, because it certainly could be pushed even further.

 

In the upper right and lower left corners are blank areas. I did not want to crop large sections of the galaxy and background off, so I filled these blank areas with a simple noise pattern so that they would not be distracting. H-alpha coverage is incomplete, but close enough that it does not appear to be missing much.

 

Data from the following two proposals was used. I used mosaics from the LEGUS page, as well as the mosaics from the HLA because some parts of the chip gaps in the LEGUS mosaics did not look very good.
