Tutorial Tuesdays – Silhouettes

This has been a hilarious tutorial, as the only way to get a silhouette at sunset is to be lower than your model, image a stiff boned 66 year old sitting on the sand, let alone getting up after getting another 66 year old to pose.  Thank goodness for trees.

Sunset at Lake Bonney

I did very little in the way of editing, just an exposure correction in Topaz Lab Adjust 5 and frame.  The next shot is of Henk, I did do some editing with the Hue and Saturation Adjustments in PSE10 using the individual colours.

 

I think I could have waited a little longer for the sun to set.

Quotography – Spiritual

This is not in my comfort zone, so I had to think about a saying and a photograph. Several days ago a snail had crawled up my window in our office and stayed there, so I just picked up by camera and took a black and white shot.  Did not think about it until I read this weeks challenge. So I created a black mask around the image and added a saying which has no reference.

Quotography – Trees

This photograph was taken at Overland Corner, South Australia during one of the frequent landscape drives Henk and I take from our home town of Berri.  Along the River Murray are many dead river gums that spread their majestic limbs towards the sky.  This shot was originally in colour, I have used Topaz Lab’s Black and White filter.

Photo Art Friday

This week I have taken some photographs that I took just recently of the garden, pond and PussPuss. I added the PDPA Cubed Texture to create the following image. Then I gave the image some HDR treatment in Topaz Lab Adjust 5.
