Photo of the Day - April 2009

Fishing boats

Another experiment in tone-mapping. There's definitely a learning curve. Now I'm noticing the picture looks flatter and less saturated in both FF and Safari 4 than it does in Photomatix, or Pixelmator, or any other image processing software. All on the same display... I set the color gamut to be sRGB when generating the original HDR image before tone mapping, if that makes any difference. There's a lot of tweaking going on...

Nice one. I recently went about photographing the backs of some flowers, but none of them had such a rewarding texture as this one.

My latest model has very silky skin:

Really nice shot. Simple. It just works...

I agree. The repetition of visual elements combined with the eye-flow of the path and hedge are a beautiful base scene to set the figures against. Wonderful overall unity.

sunset in the orient

Interesting use of posterizing? ps filter, I think it works for this image, I like how the glass lights up and slightly for the trailing spray.

Was unsure of whether to correct the horizon on this one.

Don't be indecisive; just do it...

hi, I use only iPhoto. Turned up levels and contrast. Also added some definition and sharpness.

During the evening stroll to the pub, we were treated to a nice sunset.

A local hotel that tells you all you need to know:

It's the Highgate Hotel...

It was built in 1769...

It's 258 miles from London...

And 135 miles from Edinburgh...

And over the window is written: "To the dwellers in this place, God grante peace"...

A modern building would just say: 'You are 500 metres from the nearest McDonalds'...
