Le Suquet is the old quarter of Cannes, probably best known to tourists as the climbing, winding cobbled lane lined with local restaurants, Rue St Antoine. Le Suquet contains a clock tower and church that sit high facing east overlooking the Bay of Cannes and Cannes itself. At the bottom of Le Suquet on Rue Dr. P. Gazagnaire is the Marché Forville, where the market is held in the mornings and early afternoon.
This area is the original fishermans' residential area of Cannes. The houses are all very old. The streets were laid out at least 400 years ago. It is a 5-minute walk from the beach and is full of restaurants around the Rue Saint Antoine and the Rue du Suquet. A lot of the area is pedestrianised and is a major tourist attraction for visitors to Cannes.
The rue du Suquet is the original main road into Cannes. It came in below the walls of the castle (for defence reasons). It is a pedestrian street again and has plenty of restaurants [Wikipedia.org]
Edited this one in CS6 with nothing more than a pass of noise cancelation, slight curves adjustment, and sharpening on only the red and green channel.
First, Happy Thanksgiving To Everyone. Second DO NO TRY THIS AT HOME.
The following is how I edit my photos from my camera to Flickr.
1. Take an insane amount of photos of everything that you see in burst mode. I shoot everything in raw and large jpeg. I usually take a burst of 3 photos for every subject. For something like a marathon, my trip to San Francisco, or my day at the Lone Star Rally that would translate to 5000 photos. I took close to 30,000 photos in Japan. If we hadn't had 2 typhoons move through while I was there it would have been closer to 50,000. If you have quit laughing now please read on.
2. I transfer the 64 gb sd cards to my Windows 7 desktop. I usually do this one card at a time since I never have more than a 100 gb of storage left.
3. After uploading a sd card I go though and delete each out of focus shot or anything that just looks really off. Hopefully I cleared up enough room to upload another card. If not I try to see what I can part with and delete that. Eventually I will get everything into my Windows photo editor. The editor only sees jpegs and I have to move the cards over to my Mabook Pro in order to see the raw files.
4. The next step is to pick the best photo out of each burst. Sometimes the tired X-T1 misses every shot in a burst but really that is mostly my fault.
5. Go through the best shots and decide what to actually keep and edit in Lightroom. I try to remember that Lightroom can work wonders on some photos. Hopefully, I culled heavily but that is another problem that I am working on.
6. Rename all of the keeper photos so that I can find them in Lightroom. I am sure that there is an easy way to do this. This actually takes a really long time for me.
7. Transfer all of the photos to be edited onto another sd card.
8. Finally, turn on the Macbook Pro and import all of the photos into Lightroom.
9. Apply some sort of edit to the first photo and hopefully that can be applied to most of the photos in the upload.
10. Go back over every photo and make any minor adjustments that are necessary.
11. Go back over the photos one last time and cull any if necessary.
12. Finally, they can be uploaded to Flickr.
And that is how not to do it. (I actually really, really do it this way. It is possible that I even left a step or two out.)
Located in the heart of the glamorous city of Cannes —close to the Palais du Festival and famous Croisette walk— the Vieux Port de Cannes has been a long time favourite port of call for boats of all sizes. A wooden quay in front of the Capitainerie can accommodate yachts up to 40m there (50m upon request)

This is not an image I would normally post, but having decided a while ago to document my workflow (I’m an engineer…. I like to document how things work!), I thought it might be useful to post it and see if it draws any comments. I am often curious about what other folks do and sometimes think my own workflow is somewhat over complex.
I used the following:
•Adobe Bridge CC; ou can get this with a FREE Adobe CC subscription. I use it to provide a centralized way of browsing and managing my files and launching all my other applications.
•DxO PhotoLab; for me the best RAW developer out there, and I’ve tried most of them.
•PENX DCU; if I really must develop using Pixel Shift, I sometimes use this. However, I really don’t like it. Please DxO, give me Pixel Shift support!!
•ON1 Photo 2017; there are some nice filters in here. I had high hopes that the RAW developer would be awesome, but its simply not a patch on DxO, especially now DxO have finally added selective development.
•AuroraHDR; I’m really on the fence with HDR packages. This seems to offer good results and a lot of control, but I’ve only been using it for a few days.
•Afinity Photo; I ditched my Adobe subscription in favour of using Affinity Photo. It is excellent value for money, powerful and extremely stable.
•NIK filters; barely ever uses them as ON1 filters are so much better.

Intro
Engine coughin’ in the rising sun
Dust cloud forming — hog on the run
Verse 1
Steel-toed thunder in a gravel haze
Barnyard riot in a feedback blaze
Snare cracks harder than a loaded gun
Bassline hits like a hog on the run
Pre-Chorus
No leash
No chain
Full throttle
No lane
Chorus
Hog on the run!
Tear through the gate!
Mud in the teeth!
Too fast to hate!
Hog on the run!
Feel that pound!
Low-end fury
Shakes the ground!
Verse 2
Amp stacks shaking in a rusted shed
Kick drum talking like the living dead
Crowd goes feral when the low end hums
Boots hit dirt and the chaos comes
Pre-Chorus
No brake
No stall
Full charge
Break the wall
Chorus
Hog on the run!
Metal and mud!
Bassline charging
Thick as blood!
Bridge
Dig it deep
Root the floor
Let it shake
Want it more
Grind the dirt
Split the night
Low-end beast
Ready to bite
Final Chorus
HOG ON THE RUN!
HOG ON THE RUN!
Bassline hits — no mercy won!

First day of work after nice and sweet holidays.
I'm back in urban flux, trafic, polution and stress.
Work= End of contemplation. End of liberty.
This photo shows how we miss the beauty of the world and nature when we work as robots.
Drivers in foreground drive so fast they can't see beautiful landscapes in background.

The dividers that follow are "inbox", "actions", "agendas", "projects", and "reference". I use the inbox for note taking, and when I process the notes remove them from the section. So if it's working the inbox is close to empty
Oh noes! I realized something was wrong with the workflow I was designing. Went back to sketches and BAM, fixed it.
Creating actions for future weddings is so much fun. Now I have pretty nice workflow developed.
New Presetr Fuji 400H preset as an import preset in Lightroom. Then I run the whole exported JPG folder through automated Photoshop action, which adds two Alienskin Exposure custom presets with film grain and a bit faded toning.
Most important part is the scaling, which I do atm. with the "Bicubic automatic" setting in Ps. It sharpens the grain to look even more like film.
I'm not after film look because it's film, but because it looks 'organic' (=more alive).
WORKFLOW:
5 exposures merge to HDR in CS4, save as 32bit Radiance
Toned mapped in Photomatix 3, Save as 8bit Tiff
Adjusted levels, Hi Pass, Noise Reduction, Borders and Texts in CS4, save as Jpg
So today I noticed that the Beta 2 for Adobe Lightroom 3 was out, and I decided to give it a shot. Never really understanding what was that different between LR and Bridge/ACR, I decided to give it a try. What the heck, can't beat the price.
Well, thus far, I love it. I did everything to the image posted here in LR (including uploading it to Flickr!), and it was fairly intuitive for someone already familiar with Bridge/ACR. I LOVE the brushes, too! My only concern is that since I can do so much in LR, I will be lazy and not go into PS when I only anticipate making minor adjustments there.
The second purpose of this post is to invite you all to the Disney Photo Challenge Group. While I'm sure many of you are already members, for those who aren't, this is a light-hearted group with topical challenges. It's not an ordinary "awards" group nor is it a critique group. It's more a fun and community type group...it also happens to be my favorite group on Flickr. So if you haven't checked it out, give it a shot; you might have a good time there, too!
Karolina & Jacek - wedding session at Gdynia Orłowo
I must admit that I developed Delicious Recipes firstly for myself ;)
I just couldn't stand so many hours it took me to create satisfying colors through Capture NX2, so I struggled to find other way for processing with my beloved colors. And finally I developed them in Lightroom 4 with Color Efex Pro :)
Now I have such an easy way to get my RAW files developed. Now it takes 4-7 hours of work from import to LR to export for a 380-450 wedding. ( Time depends on lighting conditions and retouch needed ). Before, in CaptureNX 2 it took me rather 20-35 hours and it was definitely worth it, as colors were brilliant, but so time-consuming!
I share all the details of my actual workflow for Lightroom 4/5 + Color Efex Pro 4 in Delicious Recipes. All the instructions and tips, combined with all the recipes and presets needed to get beautiful results fast:
