Experimenting With Photoshop

You can do this with a special lens or software if you have it. Doable with Elements or CS series of Adobe. This is my first attempt at what is called tilt-shift photography. It plays with you imagination and the illusion in your eyes. I need a better picture, higher up and with more in it I do believe. The illusion is to look like miniature objects using blur and clarity but limiting the clarity. I was at an autocross race of Corvettes and Porsches standing on the upper part of the grandstands.


Flying?

Flying pizza or flying cars overhead.

It Will Take You Away

Only needs someone sitting in the left seat and you're off.

Cold!!!!!!!!

Nothing says cold more than the lack of color and the shimmer of lighting on a canvas.


Of course the next thing is to see your heating going out the pipe on your roof.


Warming the Cold Morning of Winter

The sky is being warmed on a cold winter morning. The frosty air can still be seen through the layers of trees in the woods.

Reflections

We went from a dreary rainy weekend with some breezes to bring on a chill to a bright sunny day with just enough pillowy clouds with some magenta reflecting from the sun to paint this on the pond behind our home.

Moon Shots From 12/03/12

Sky shots of any kind need definition and clouds are pretty much the only thing that works. I use to fly radio control airplanes and the best time to fly was with a back drop of clouds to help keep your orientation. After all, you aren't in the cockpit unless you have one of the newer cameras mounted and know how to view what you are seeing....ie drones.

There was just a whisper of clouds in the sky last night. I couldn't leave well enough alone, the original pictures came out pretty good right from the camera. Night shots can be bit to get right. The first picture has some HDR (High Definition Resolution) with some Levels tweaking, color control as well and changing from color to black and white. Image was taken through a window.



This shot I call Reflections. You could all it a vertical panorama.

You can enlarge if you desire.
