| Hudson Line | June 18, 2009 @ 10:22pm | Took this on a recent Sunday afternoon along the Hudson River. I tried quite a few different crops and just decided to stop playing. Any suggestions for alternatives?

| June 19, 2009 @ 8:46am | I'm glad you were on an overpass!!! I like the curves of the tracks - they point right at that bridge spanning the two shores of the river - and how the river curves around the hill. Makes me want to hurry along to see what's around the corner.
The "puffy" trees, the "puffy" clouds - and even the "puffy" rocks lining the river bank echo each other.
And since I'm "speedlight-less" now, I like to imagine that the utility tower is a light stand carrying 12 speedlights to light up those clouds!

| halo on tree line | June 28, 2009 @ 4:42pm | Hi Artie,
Just a comment on the tree line, it looks like there is a bit of haloing (not even sure of the spelling for that one) which is of course a light fringing along an edge, going on in the tree line along the tops.
Could be from many things, just the silhouette against the skyline, a touch of HDR or extra sharpening, if you have photoshop then create a new layer and throw on a blending mode of darken using the eye dropper tool select an area close to the light fringing that is darker and then simply paint on to the new layer.
Photoshop will magically make any pixel that is lighter than your foreground color dark.
So the halo effect is completely removed, start with a small brush at first and give it a shot.
Regards,
Danny |

| Haloing | June 30, 2009 @ 10:03pm | Thanks, Danny.
The haloing is actually from some sloppy masking. The sky had a multiply layer as well as some adjustment layers. Those little bits of inaccruacy add up.
