This is a shot that I hadn't liked until I started to "fix it."

See the original here.

I fixed the distortion and cloned out the water bottle. I used a gradient map and channel mixer to convert to black and white.

I find it very interesting how well received this shot is. Really, the original shot was just uploaded to get a few more of my photos online. I never liked it or thought it was very good. I really only "fixed" it because I was bored. I still look at this photo and see how much I didn't like the original. I'm very glad that a lot of you do, in fact, like it.

This is an oldy, but goody. It's from the first time I took my camera outside to take pictures. It's a photo I want to go back to, maybe at dawn, and try to get a better, or different, exposure.

Ordering prints

I've priced my prints, but I am still working on setting up a shopping cart. Head over to the order page to see the price list.

San Francisco

I went to the Giants game this weekend (I hate the Dodgers) and will hopefully have some of those photos posted here in the next few days. By the way, I hate the Dodgers.
