OH MY! I could really get used to this weather. It was great today, wish I had had time to go fishin.Wonderful South breeze and sunny with fluffy clouds all day long. Friends took us to dinner and had a great supper. The Red Lion, British of course, a place that makes one whale of a fish and chips. No pun intended.
The sale of my mothers house closed today up in Indiana, and I was printing and scanning a few late documents that had to be back there by this afternoon. It sure drug out a long tiime and we did not get full value from the property, but the folks that bought it are very happy and it is out of our hair.
Judy spent a few days designing a wedding album only to find that the new software was not the same as with her normal lab and could not get what she wanted. Then, deleted the composites from the program thinking it was deleting the order. So , Lesson learned, if you change labs, make sure you understand the software you are going to. Even if it the same thing like ROES, or Lab Prints. Each lab has their own version, and their own products. Make sure you understand the new one, before you jump into something new.
Today's technology is moving so quickly that one might think they know the software, but it might be just slightly different enough to cause you grief. Check with their customer service or accnt rep in detail before making decisions. After consulting with studios for almost twenty years, I can tell you from other experiences that even though you THINK you know something,,it is best to go slow and go though everything first.
Ok..off the soap box..
.today's image is a nothing shot make mystical, as a friend put it. I will show the before and the after.
There are several "new layers" in the overlay mode, as well as burning and dodging using blank layers in overlay mode. Switching back and forth from black and white to toned and back again with layer maskes.
All I need is a bridge for the Troll to come out of.. Strange how one's work changes with the mood of the day.
Have a great weekend all. Judy and I off to an Art Show up North of Orlando tomorrow.. We want to see what is selling, if any thing, especially photography.
Hugs,
Bruce and Judy
