Went For A Walk in the Early Afternoon

I went for a walk around 3pm today. Maria took Isabelle and Bobby to Six Flags and I stayed home and filled the dumpster. (Don't feel bad for me I did not want to go) Then I walked the same path that I walked in my previous blog called "Went For A Walk Late/Early One Morning." I took, in all, about 50 pictures. Here are the 15 that made the cut. Enjoy!

Flower by the Park

Don't know what kind of berry this is

Love the colors

Inside the one above this

Made the sky more blue

This reminds me of Christmas

These weeds don't look like they belong here

Same weeds, different processing

Somebody had this out front by their mailbox

At the park

Still can't figure out what F-Stop to use

The wind was blowing like crazy

The bridge on the way to the park

By the trail

My neighbor's yard

I Created My First Photoshop Action

This will be a short blog. 


I created my first Photoshop action today. I call it edgy.


You can download it here. 


Below are some befores and afters of running the action. It is kinda subtle, but if you compare them, you can see the difference.

Went For A Walk Late/Early One Morning

I walked around my neighborhood one morning at around 4 or 4:30 and took some pictures. Then I came home and edited them in Lightroom and Photoshop. I'll show all three for this post. First picture is straight out of camera, second is after Lightroom and third is after Photoshop.

I hope you enjoyed this visual journey into my workflow. Until next time...

I edited some of the pictures some more. Here they are:

Added color back in collar

WOW! My keyboard is dusty!

removed Febreze

With the keyboard image I was playing with the focus and aperture settings to get a shallow depth of field.
