WEEK 22 – Principle Toyota of Hernando

Unfortunately, like my El Agave photos, my exterior photos of this dealership didn’t turn out all that well insofar as the lighting is concerned, due to lots of sun glare on March 8th. I tried to brighten them up in editing, but now they just look severely overprocessed. But hopefully none of that outshines the subject matter, which as always is the most important part of the images.

In the previous shot we were looking at the front of the dealership, while in this pic, we’ve continued to head southward along McIngvale Road and approach the monument sign. Hernando disallows tall roadside signs, and did not make an exception for Toyota, but I think the dealership is quite large and visible enough that a tall sign would’ve been redundant/unnecessary anyway.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)

...Down the rabbit hole.

Done with HDR. I know that it is probably overprocessed to other photographers, but I kind of like the effect.

Last gasp and over processed

This started out as (another) tribute to my friend Steven but it kinda went out of control. It's more of a tribute to my friend Chris now.

I just need to link to some hardcore metal shit to make it official!!!

I'll get you next time, Steven (though to be fair, I've talked about you two days in a row now, so that counts for something I think).

P.S. Better if you click L to view large.

The last of these.

Larger and more on black

A shot from the Roanoke City Market this morning before the customers rolled in. A three shot HDR and probably overprocessed but I think it looks cool! :-D

processed for sliders sunday

I just realized these can be filled with ice cream and not just red bean paste, yum! and they come in cute stamped designs. this was coconut, and super delicious!

Blessed Sacrament Church

The Oblate Fathers built this church in 1905 and called it St. Mary's. The name was changed to Blessed Sacrament in 1934. This church at 2049 Scarth Street is the oldest Roman Catholic Church in Regina and the second oldest church in the city still in use (St. Paul's Anglican Cathedral was built in 1894).

For - Happy Slider Sunday - HSS!

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

I uploaded a version of this shot last June and named it 1950's Modern Day Utopia. It was a really overprocessed because I wanted to make it look like a drawing or painting.

I took this similar shot yesterday. Even with only slight HDR it still looks abit unnatural but I like it.

VIEW IT MASSIVE!!!!!

I had at least two ideas for a manipulation today, but accepted around 9:30pm that they just weren't going to happen.

I've overcome my lack of inspiration, and am dealing with the adversity of what I have to work with space-wise, however everything relies on one small source of disruption: The two and a half foot munchkin that lives at my heels.

That kid really knows how to make photography impossible. :)

So, rather than something mildly interesting or worthwhile, you get this strangely over-processed blob of me.

Yup.

Okay then, see ya'll tomorrow.

I'm out.

mwah

Random Fact: Fathers tend to determine the height of their child, mothers their weight.

Love this. Christie be careful! Mom will get mad when she sees this!

A photograph of a photographer (the same one as in the previous picture, in fact) taking a panorma with his phone.

Overprocessed for Sliders Sunday and because he looked more interesting as a silhouette.

My shadow got it first.

Don't be afraid to break the mold.

This started as the flowers that Mandy posed with on Monday...just wanted to make a fun splash of colors and I'm allowed to be ridiculous on Sunday. Have a great day. HSS!

Over processed film. No edits.

Had some fun with photoshop on this one.

We walked from Bath to Bradford upon Avon, along the Kennet and Avon canal - was a beautiful day and everything was looking autumnal.

Ramped up the contrast and saturation in this - it's a very busy photo, liable to make your eyes hurt, but I love the colours.

This is one of about 100 shots I took today. I held the camera low whilst skating along the same stretch of river for about an hour. In the process narrowly avoiding several others, hitting a bin and almost ending up in the drink. The processing is another story. Which you can find on From Ore to Gold

Overprocessed? what do you think?

Runner up in the Theme Comp. No 20

i just like to lie here with my pink tree. i love it.

I'm always amazed at how the natural beauty of the desert seems to intensify 10-fold during times of stormy weather. I took this last week while searching for a good location for a star trail.

Taken from Culp Valley overlooking Borrego springs. Coyote mountain and the Santa Rosa's are in the distance. This was three bracketed exposures shot hand held and merged to HDR in photomatix. This may look a bit overprocessed, my HDR skills aren't the best.

How often do I post shots like this?

Too rarely, might I say.

Not that I can't deal with the ocassional SOOC shot....but I have this odd, OCD thing where I feel I have to overprocess, overdo everything.

Today my head can't handle it. :) So no. No textures, FGR attempts, or big winded shebang.

So, as so rarely it occurs (though LAST time it made front page explore, rofl!! Ugh!), you get K in her comfies, taking a quick snap before she sluggishly pulls on some jeans and heads to town to get something that resembles dinner.

cheers to that. :)

Hope everyone has a good evening.

Don't cry, Minotaur.

Things will get better soon.

P.S. This weekend i am taking photos goddammit. 'Cause if i don't...i think my head might explode.

i talked stacy into making my shot cooler with her presence.

Blueberry buttermilk cupcakes scented with banana, blueberry cream cheese swirl frosting

Blueberry cream cheese swirl frosting:

250g cream cheese, cold

80g unsalted butter, softened

1 cup powdered sugar, sifted

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup good quality blueberry preserves

1. In a bowl of a food processor, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add sifted powdered sugar and pulse just until blended (do not overprocess). Pulse in vanilla extract.

2. Layer cream cheese frosting and blueberry preserves in a piping bag filled with a large plain tip and frost cupcakes

This is one of the many abandoned houses in the little town of Zeeland ND. This is the town my Mom grew up in, the current population is 82.

I am kinda on a bit of a B&W streak lately. Not sure about the processing, maybe I over did it?

Check it large and let me know what you think :-)

It's Monday, I'm not ready...

“I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun.”

Today's song is by Deep Forest, one of my favourites as well. It is called...

Noonday Sun

Picture of Argent on the couch this evening. She doesn't have quite as much energy as she normally would have due to her appetite being essentially at zero right now. We gave her some liquified cat food this morning with a syringe and she didn't struggle (or vomit it up) so she got some food today, and she licked at and ate a little of some pouch cat food. I'm not sure that will be enough... (This particular image is a bit overprocessed but the original was too dark...)

The zine has been published by Tour de Varsovie. Tdv, devoted to city cycling, city touring, or simply getting to know the city from the bike perspective, for 4 years has been organizing bike tours tracing the warsaw street art, grafitti, architecture, arts and all possible types of activities in the city public space. Tdv promotes the prime cycling tradition, so called cycling tourism. Tdv does not fight for creating new bike paths, as they are regarded as reduction for cyclists leading to ¨ghettification¨. Tdv opts for using the bike as a tool for exploring the city without any limits of the designed paths.

I saw patterns left by the flow of rainwater on a gravel road. But then I got totally carried away in post, so in addition to an overprocessed abstract, I see a Doctor Seuss character, ar mabybe a rabbit standing up, confronting a duck. No doubt, others skilled in pareidolia will report other discoveries. At least, I hope so.

In any case, Happy Sliders Sunday!

A landscape, built for a contest on the Lego Contest Network. Not really something I've tried before. If I was wiling to spend more time on it I would have found a way of scaling the trees on top of the escarpment so that they were smaller than those at the foot, thus creating a false perspective. However it was fun to put together.

I also used Calvin Hollywood's 'Freaky Details' on this, or at least my PSE8 variant of it. There's a video of how to use it in this blog post, which is for Photoshop on the Mac, but it's not hard to convert. And it's worth it for the narration :)

Submitted as an entry for 'Groups' for the Cliche Saturday Scavenger Hunt, as well as fulfilling both the Lego and overprocessed cliches as well.

Week 31/52

Theme "Over Processed"

7/27/24

Intentionally overprocessed - the day was very overcast, and this white car was totally blown out in a desaturated setting. While fiddling with the Levels to see what I could eek out of the detail, I noticed that the farther I went in this direction, the better it looked.

Goofing around at the dinner table. Over processed on purpose and submitted at the local fair and got 2nd place in the cellphone class. :)

November 11th is Veteran's Day.

Before you run to the mall for those sales, before you crack a cold beer early in the afternoon, before you go see a movie...thank a veteran.

i'm bummed because i'll never be as good of an artist as Joe Sorren up there on the wall behind me.

only on black please.

Overprocessed? Yes, but I like it.

On the way to work the other morning we had a bit of fog and when going by the lake we couldn't resist stopping to "catch the moment". Just a little bit of sliding on this just to emphasize the fog.
