Like a cell block
This image right here: this is why I don’t delete my images after a quick look when I upload them after a shoot. Nope – I keep everything except the ones that are completely over- or under-exposed.* Because you just never know…
This one was a victim of sloppy shooting. It was crooked and it needed a lot of work to correct the perspective. I tried fixing it a couple of times, but it never worked. Then, the other day, I felt like giving it another try. Why now? I know more about Photoshop than when I’d worked on it before and thought it was worth a little bit more attention.
Still it took a couple of tries to get what you see here, with horizontals and verticals lined up the way I wanted. After that, getting the rough and dark cell-block look I was after was easy.

*And yes, that does require a LOT of storage space….
UPDATE:
Someone over on my One Day | One Image Facebook page asked what this shot looked like before I worked on it, so here you go:

Tombstones may be on the move
Is it just me? (Probably)
Those short, bright tombstones give the appearance of congregating, ready to move along.
At any rate, I left the cemetery before they did.

The biggest plowboy
I just knew that you’d been wondering where, exactly, the biggest plowboy in Texas was located, and as luck would have it, I was able to find him for you.

PhotoPlace Gallery – Man in the Landscape
I got word yesterday that this image, “The Cost of Doing Business” was accepted into the online gallery for PhotoPlace Gallery’s show “Man in the Landscape.” I like getting good news at the end of the week. Or at any time, really. You can see the entire set of images here.
