Playing around at the lake today, then applying some heavy post processing. Shots taken with my 85mm f/1.8 lens.
This was processed in Photoshop CS3 by converting to b&w, then adding some filter effects for a semi-sepia look, followed by posterizing for the pinkish tint, and adding poster edges to create outlined details..
This is our resident bobcat. I couldn't get close enough for a super nice shot, so I enlarged the face in place.
How it was edited: I use Apple Aperture to edit photos. So first, I hit auto-levels, which is a magical button that makes almost everything look 100% better. This brightened the photo too much, so I lowered the brightness 5%, bumped the contrast a bit, and increased the saturation to 130%. This got me pretty close to what I wanted, but it still needed more. I adjusted the white balance some, to make it more yellow (it was taken just before sunset, after all). I cloned out one funny speck of dust that was on the sensor (damn dust spots!). Finally, I bumped up the teal and yellow saturations separate from the overall saturation of color, and gave it a tiny vignette. I'm very happy with the final result!

Beans, beans are good for your heart
The more you eat the more you fart
The more you fart the better you feel
So eat your beans with every meal

When doing portraits for kids, I usually take some time to have them do some silly faces. It helps put them more at ease and sometimes make the best photos.

I've been looking at lomography lately. I do really enjoy the aesthetics and I'd like to get back into it but I'm not sure if I'm willing to commit to film now.
The second of the two-parter. I had this crazy idea to do a picture that looked like when a character had to eat a boot in old cartoons. I added the colored vignette, desaturated it, and upped the clarity to give it an otherworldly feel.
