I was walking my daughters to school this week. They both started school/pre-school this week and we are trying to get in the habit of walking the 1 mile together. I cherish this time I have with the both of them before I send them off to their day.
I saw these birds sitting on some wires and it reminded me of notes on a staff. Maybe it’s my brain telling me to get back into teaching mode! I took a quick shot before moving along. Here is how it looked straight from the camera.
After some adjustments and removal of wires in photoshop, I came up with this image:
I liked how it turned out, but just as an exercise I reversed the colors and I like it even better! Just a fun little example of how I like to work on my photos.
Choices
I love processing photos. Lately, I’ve been trying to stretch beyond my comfort zone and work on processing my images in black and white. This image I was working on last night I made both a color and a black and white version.
While I was pretty happy with the image I also wanted to see how it would look in black and white. Taking the image through Silver Efex Pro 2 I worked and tweaked the image to take the whites and blacks in the image where I thought they looked the best.I think both versions work but give a completely different look and feel in each one. What do you think?
