We visited in June in both 2008 and 2009 so that I could photograph the Puffins on Machias Seal Island and the Lupines all around Acadia and Mount Desert Island. This year it is [...] It was just that kind of day yesterday. When I got up yesterday the forecast was for overcast with fog.

Well, I am now back home after a great 3 1/2 day Tony Sweet Workshop in Cuyahoga Valley National Park and surrounding environs just outside of Cleveland, Ohio. As I said before this was my first photography workshop of any kind and I really, really enjoyed it. Day 3 began with a morning shoot in [...] I love photography. And I love creating realistic images… images that capture what is before me. But the creative side of me continues to want to experiment both in-camera and in post-processing. And I am finding the Topaz Suite (Adjust, Detail, Clean, Simplify, etc.) to be a marvelous tool for releasing the inner artist in [...] I continue to be smitten by the Topaz Suite for Photoshop and I continue to experiment just because it is so much fun. This is obviously an autumn foliage image from our trip to Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (PA) this past weekend. While I liked the photograph as it came out of [...] |
