I cropped the original picture down a tad, bumped up the yellow and green a little and then used the curves application available in PSE and applied the increase constrast option.

new macro lens!

So I just got the Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens and I love it! I can't wait to take it up north this summer and see what awesome pics I can get. I'll definitely need to get a tripod since it's really hard to keep the camera still and take the picture. Here's just a few I got today...nothing exciting really.

This is what the side of a melon looks like up close...


...and just a few outside shots...

...and the set wouldn't be complete without one of my Cheeto...

Pics from 7 FEB 09

These are pics that I posted on my other blog, but I figured I'd transfer them over here.

Here's a pier at a local park...
adjusted levels


...and a B&W conversion I did applying a gradient and then playing with the levels to achieve a nice contrast


And here's the ice
adjusted the levels and bumped up the blue color a little


and of course one of my cat (SOOC)
