time on my hands


 

So I've recently found myself with some time on my hands and I wanted to do something creative so I thought I would start a photo blog.  Admittedly, I'm not a professional photograph and will confess the last class I took was sometime in high school.  But I've always had an interest so here I am trying to learn more and playing with the pictures I've taken over the years.  I hope to post a new photo once a week so here we go.  


Photo Details:
Edited with Picasa Filters:  Lomo-ish, Cinemascope, Orton-ish
ISO 200
Exposure 1/500 sec
Aperture 4.0
Focal Length 50mm

  1. I'm looking forward to watching your progress! :) I like that you posted the technical details as well, for others who are just starting out it'll be useful to see what settings you used.

    The image seems rather vivid though so I have to ask: Did you use photoshop or any other editing software afterwards? If you have, I think you should say that, too :)

    1. Thanks, you've given me the idea to post the original picture with the edited version. I did use a lot filters on this. Lately, I've been trying to let the picture's merits speak for themselves and not rely on filters so much. But absolutely going forward I will mention how I've edited the picture.
