This was a much tougher walk than I expected with one or two very steep climbs which were hard work with all the clothing I was wearing to keep warm. I used split tonimg to enhance what was a dull photo direct into the sun on a dull afternoon.
About the only photo I liked from a strenuous hike up to Nesmith Point - it was an "off" day.
This thing was initially quite dull, but the strong lines and patterns caught my attention enough to get me to fiddle with it. Kicking up the exposure, and applying a steep, notched tone curve exaggerated the fine detail in the leaves. Lowering shadow levels and upping the black point increased the separation between the foreground and background branches. Desaturating the majority of the image kept the (now ridiculous) neon colors in check. Split-toning restored a slight color tint to somewhat balance the caterpillar. All of this was done in Lightroom.
After fiddling, I'm pretty happy with it.
I like:
* subtle detail on leaves (lines, delicate edges - look like wings)
* leaves converge, seem like they're flying.. some are spiraling
* strong patterns (leaves entering from edges of frames, and also more visible further in the background)
* caterpillar adds an extra surprise detail (perhaps less of a surprise now that it's neon green)
I don't like:
* leaves converge on a void - might have preferred the caterpillar be there, instead
* inadequate depth-of-field, making central leaves soft
* caterpillar is very close to the frame (it blended in, so I didn't actually see it until reviewing images - this was the only one that had it entirely in the frame)
I'm not sure about:
* retaining color on caterpillar? it didn't particularly stand out, otherwise - but maybe subtlety is better
* perhaps eliminate the caterpillar entirely? I'm not so sure it is even the subject of this image...
* is that even a caterpillar??

Got up to #2 on Explore for 3/2/08 and now has settled somewhere in the top 20! Thanks! :) If you liked this photo, you should check out these sets of other abandoned locations.

Most of the kitchen in the resort was flooded, resulting in an ice floor. This box is the walk-in freezer. I'm not happy with many of the shots from our trip to this place, but this is one I really like.
Very few trains come down this way. They deliver materials to a couple manufacturing plants, then head back into Elkhart.

Back home now after an amazing trip to Iceland. Took the dog for a walk to enjoy the colours before they fade completely.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. I just loved the look of these two women in their orange scarves and matching jackets after being handed some free samples on the street. Enjoy!

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. I assume she was on her way to the TRNSMT festival on Glasgow Green and it was her blue/teal hair and, frankly, her halterneck that caught my attention. Given some split-tone processing with orange and teal and sadly I had to crop her companion out of the image, she had an unfortunate expression in the shot. Enjoy!

EXPLORED (Feb 23, 2014, #363 and dropped). My 1st explore and its not even a photo I'm proud of :) Bizarre as its in 27 groups and I always thought more than 5 groups and there was no chance? Still, its nice I guess :) I'd be more proud if it was a fav image of mine though. There's many images that I like better :)

HSS!
Anybody else having problems with the "People" page (in the drop-down menu under "You") - no longer displaying photos from people I follow. Very frustrating!
I wasn't able to see the Aurora lately because the sky was not clear around here. A few rare solar events have occurred already this year. On the other hand thick cloud cover is too common in this region!
I'm posting this to make the best of it.

I know I've gone a bit nuts with pictures of Chatterley Whitfield colliery recently, but I couldn't resist posting one more. This is a split-toned monochrome image of the Hesketh shaft headstock, which dates back to 1915.
Found a nice path near work and performed some acrobatics. One day they'll have to scrape me off some surface or other.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. An interesting young woman with her dreadlocks and many, many scarves - they were much needed in the chill air. Given a light 'orange and teal' split tone processing in post, for a soft cinematic feel. Wishing all of my Flickr friends a fantastic weekend, enjoy!
