...and call it a day!
So, I was completely uninspired today and also didn't have much time. So I did what Xavier says that he does sometimes and that is to use a fisheye lens. And then I processed the heck out of it. I picked up an Olloclip for my iPhone tonight!

Well, you know how it is... When you get used to this, you'll always keep looking, always try to find someone to photograph.
A couple weeks ago I went to Antalya for a fly-in event and had the chance to shoot some stranger portraits.
Meet Melis.
I met her when I visited the tower to take some photos of the landing aircraft. It looked like she's a friend of the air traffic controller and they were sitting inside. I said hi and settled into the balcony.
After some time they came out and she started posing to the controller with the binoculars and the radio and the guy was taking her pictures with a cell phone.
As you would imagine, that was the point when I jumped into the scene. :)
It turned out that Melis is working for an airline company and supervising the cargo operations and she was at Antalya for a short weekend trip.
Lately, I am struggling with the tone curves of my monitors. I have two and never had managed to tune them properly and they have different tones. Hope you guys see a nice, natural looking picture that is not overprocessed.
This picture is #42 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at the 100 Strangers Flickr Group page

The classic view, which I found difficult to process as it easily seemed to look overprocessed!
I read once that Ansel Adams saw a negative in the darkroom as a conductor saw the script before he played it with orchestra...with software replacing the darkroom, how far is appropriate? All I can say is, this image is what my eye saw and my mind processed.
So I just got those Nix photo tools, and therefore this shot of Tuttifruiti is ridiculously overprocessed. I'm not really sure how to make good use of them yet...
Today I did a lunchtime walk that took me in a slightly different direction.
I knew that Woolton Woods hosted a beautiful walled garden, but who knew that there was a fabulous sunken garden further down the road!?!
This is an HDR composite of two hand held shots on the compact which is why it looks overprocessed to death.
It does make two dull photos a little more interesting, but I won't be making a habit of it. :)
I swear!
But I think I like this one the most, of all the others.. those just seem overprocessed and.. idk, just looked at those too much I guess :)
AGAIN LAST ONE I SWEAR!
Oh, look.
More overprocessing.
Photoshop is like a dangerous pit. If I'm just doing random experimenting, I keep adding things and changing things and adding things and changing things until I've created this kind of black hole which I delude myself into thinking looks good until I realize I should probably revert the whole photo.
But then by that point, I'm like, there's no way in the world I'm going to spend another hour making this photo look worse.
Anyway.
I think it's silly that we limit "love" to one day a year. If you really love someone, I think you should treat him or her everyday as though he or she is incredibly special. I mean, today, a woman professor was walking by with a bouquet, and another woman was like, "Oohhhh, somebody's loved." No. Somebody's husband simply remembered today was this overrated holiday and realized he had to do something about it or his wife's heart would be smooshed (I know you don't know what I sound like, but in my head, I'm using a sort of melodramatic voice for those last couple of words.).
The best gifts come on the most random of days. Those are the gifts from the heart. Those are the gifts that say, "I love you, and I don't have to have a reason to tell you so other than that I just want to let you know." I mean, how sad are we that we devote only one day to it?
(And when I say "gifts," I'm referring to the whole love thing in general. Like the dinners and the movies and the flowers that typically accompany Valentine's Day or simply telling someone know that you love him or her (which isn't simple, of course; it means a whole heck of a lot, but I need to stop before I diverge anymore (and I know that when I wrote "or simply stating..." that was in know way parallel to the the list I had already created, but tonight, my friends, I just don't care.).).)
But then again, I have some pretty radical ideas that maybe would have been the cause of my execution in less civil times. :P
They say it was Explored #111. I'm not too sure about this. It's not showing up on trusty fdflickr toys. Regardless, thank you for all the kind words and favorites!!
52.5 Weeks of 2010 [Theme:Night Street]
I don't normally do much post-processing, but thought I'd give it a try as this photo needed something doing to it (see original on my photostream)... think I may have got a bit carried away!
Started life as a 3 photo HDR then turned it B&W and added a bit of fog and then a bit of a lighting effect. HDR processed using PhotoMatix and then 'enhanced' using GIMP.
As always, better viewed on Black (lightbox view)
Comments welcomed, thanks!
Typically I process an astrophoto conservatively and then come back and upload a more aggressively processed version later on.
This time I did just the opposite--I thought the Milky Way photo I uploaded earlier was overprocessed, and I reprocessed it more conservatively.
I think this one has a more natural feel to it, and it's easier to pick out the brighter stars against the background. The Milky Way isn't as bright ... but I can't seem to brighten it without making a mess anyhow - at least not at this wide a focal length.
Yeah, I know, shameless overprocessing here . . . I just felt like it! ; )
From Gregory Franzwa's Lincoln Highway book:
The King Tower was built in 1937 by Wesley Mansfield, who promoted it as one of the most modern twenty-four-hour truck stops in the Midwest. It consisted of a two-story restaurant building with an adjacent service garage, a filling station office, and a cabin camp in back. The cafe actually was air-conditioned. There was a flashing sign on a tower atop the station.
Today, only the cafe (which has been closed for the best part of a year because of the new highway bypass) one tourist cabin and two neon signs remain.

*Overprocessed / Gritty Effect
Location: Barzan Towers
The Three Sisters are Canmore’s iconic mountains, and I spent a lot of time trying to take a really good picture of them. The weather wasn’t terribly cooperative, and finding a good vantage point was harder than I anticipated, so I'm not terribly happy with any of the results I got. This panorama is a bit overprocessed, and I’ll probably upload a revised version when I figure out how to get the effect I want.
This High Dynamic Range panorama was stitched from 12 bracketed RAW images with PTGUI Pro, tone-mapped with Photomatix, and touched up in Aperture.
Original size: 7459 × 4326 (32.3 MP; 172 MB).

Dollymount Strand in Dublin on a cold but beautiful Winters day. Completely overprocessed in Lightroom 2.1 for Mac, but it is what it is and it's not supposed to reflect reality :)
Very heavily HDR'd but I like it. The beach huts at Seaton. I expect next time I visit, they will be gone on their winter hols. Where do beach huts holiday?
Image adjusted and toned blue in Photoshop due to the photo lab's machine accidentally overdeveloping the roll of film that this image was on.

...sometimes we are the best we can be
...others we are walking in the shadows of our own selves...
...sometimes we are standing in our own ways
...for reasons so versatile
...whatever it is, whatever they are, breaking through is like a rebirth, like starting all over...new...
As sad as this picture might seem, optimistic mood existed when taken, captured when looking outside the window, where the light comes from and while having fun making pictures of that day's outfit...
Still, the processing has added a rather darker effect, which expressed partly my mood sometimes this week, as concerns about my family in Greece - where there has been so much trouble going on - and about the recent death of innocent people during the riots, prevailed in my thoughts.
Let there be no more violence, as violence breeds only more of it.
Let there be people taking responsibity of their own lives, feelings and actions.
Let there be a healthy society, as much as this is possible and applicable...
Starting by really, really looking at ourselves....taking care of our own gardens...
...of our own lives, while respecting deeply those of others.
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 :)
Done with HDR. I know that it is probably overprocessed to other photographers, but I kind of like the effect.
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.

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).

An attempt at over-processing a picture - on purpose.
It's from the book "Raw Food Made Easy for 1 or 2 People"
Coconut Crust:
1 1/2 C unsweetened shredded dried coconut
1 1/2 C raw macadamia nuts or raw walnuts
1/2 t salt
1/2 C pitted medjool dates
Place the coconut, macadamia nuts or walnuts, and salt in a food processor fitted with the S blade and process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs and begins to stick together. Don't overprocess.
Scoop the crust into a pie or tart pan. Press down along the bottom and up the sides of the pan, be sure to press esp. firmly where the bottom joins the sides. Shape the sides so that the edges are flush with the rim. Place the crust in the freezer for 15 minutes.
Mango or Pineapple Pudding Filling:
(I used pineapple)
1 1/2 C chopped fresh mangoes or pineapple
1/2 C chopped dried mangoes or pineapple (no sugar added), soaked 10 minutes in water, drained
Place the fresh and dried mangoes/pineapples in a blender and process on high speed until smooth.
Remove the crust from the freezer and spread the Mango/Pineapple Pudding over the bottom.
Topping:
assortment of fresh raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, kiwi, as you wish
(I used 1 C each raspberries and blackberries, and 1 1/2 kiwi)
Arranges the fruit as you wish. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator, Tropical Fruit Tart will keep for three days.
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!!!!!
