Exit Glacier 6


aepelbacher

Taken around 8:00 a.m. Used a monopod. Adjusted and cropped in Photoshop cs. Yes, I know that 800 speed film is not optimal for landscape photography. I am working on composition and am also working within a budget. I used 400 and 800 speed film for this entire trip in Alaska merely for the flexibility ... I wanted to be able to shoot a couple of pics of a mountain then of a bear then of a building in changing weather conditions (often overcast) and with different length lenses without having to change out film. Thanks for the comments on film ... next time I go to Alaska (!!) I will take some 100 ISA with me!

Hi Lou Ann, You always have a kind off effect on me, when I see a picture of you, I want to play with it. So I did it again, not to make it better, but a little bit different, just fo fun.

Thanks, Els ... I always enjoy when you all play around with my images digitally. It helps me learn ... thanks for sharing it back with me!!

 

And, Howard ... what I think is that I really like what you did. It's very interesting. It would never have occurred to me to use a special filter like that on an abstract like this. I'm not as creative as most of y'all. I'm hoping that as I learn more about Photoshop, I will get more ideas that will point me in more CREATIVE directions (I'm working through an online course right now ... it's at about.com).

 

Thanks to both of you for taking the time!!

I want you to say, that creativity is not something you have to learn, that is something you have. If you think that way it would be much easier. Technics is what you can learn ( and I have a lot of problems with that)but just play, enjoy, that's much more important.

because you can also make this, just to push on a botton in PS ( Paint Shop with me, I don't have photo shop), and you get this result, that's all. But that's not what it is all about, I still think your original one is just great.

You're right about creativity. I know that I've always been on the mediocre side of "genius", as I'm a musician first, yet have never been as good as I'd like. I figure, though, that as I learn what Photoshop can DO, I'll have ideas about how I can use what the software can do to create interesting variations of my photos. (Yet, I'll probably never be able to put feathers in tomatoes and have people enjoy looking at those pictures! :-D)

Good exposure on this Lou Ann...Else's last blend makes me want a bowl of chocolate chip mint ice cream....

I like the original best. I'm tempted to try a distorted glacier - haven't done that before! :)
