Captured in the Italian Alps along SS251.
After climbing down a concrete storm drain and moving my clumsy butt over rocks I finally got in position next to the stream and took 3 exposures to fuse and digitally manipulate for a final image.
Photograph taken in Monroe, MI.
When I think of urban photographs I tend to lean in the way of dark, dreary alleys dripping with condensation from sweat shops. This is the aura I have tried to create in this photograph. Although its a small town in Michigan, it could very well be mistaken for a back street in any major city in the country.
Its probably obvious by now that I thought the Dolomites were just an incredible area to visit and to photograph.
Anyways, after layering textures and a little Photoshop help, the image you see is the final product.
This is looking out across the Venetian Lagoon at the Isola di San Giorgio Maggiore.
Once again, using Photoshop and some available textures I tried to create an image of a photo taken midway through last century and then forgotten for five decades.
One lonesome tree looking over a quiet pond just south of Columbus, OH.
While driving SS51 in Italy on my way to Cortina d’Ampezzo I stopped my Citroen on the side of the road to check out the view. Looking south (or east, I wasn’t sure because the road winds so much) I saw these homes on the edge of a small cliff. The view somewhat reminded me of Ronda, Spain; without the magnificence of the mountain backdrop.
Anyways, after some Photoshop texture and layering enhancements, this is the final image.
This photo was captured in Monroe, MI.
While wandering around the back alleys, I noticed this couple out back having a smoke break and thought the lighting from the lamp above the woman’s head would make for an outstanding urban black and white photo.
Photograph taken along one of the back canals of Venice, Italy and digitally enhanced to create an aura of mystery and the unknown.
