Old Steam Engine

Tone mapped using Photomatix Pro 5.0 and B&W developed in Perfect

Effects 8 then finished on Lightroom 5.  Trying to see how things flow from one program to another.  I don't have the skill set down but going from one program to another is a breeze. 



Birthday Flowers

  Dan brought me home some beautiful flowers for my birthday and gave them to me early so I could play around and photograph them over the weekend.

 

Kregel Windmill Factory Museum

Kris took me on an outing for my birthday to Nebraska City, we had a wonderful lunch at the Lied Lodge and then went to the museum.  I can not even begin to explain the excitement I felt when I walked in, this is my kind of place.  When we got done I felt rejuvenated photography wise as I had been quite a slump, nothing was inspiring me, but one look at all that rusty and crusty and my heart was going pitter patter. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

New Year - Another go at using my flash

I think I have Alzheimer's of the photo world when it comes to using my flash because no matter how any times Kris has tried to help me and all the numerous videos I have watched it just doesn't click but once again I am giving it the old college try.
