John Maio Posted December 22, 2006 Share #2 Posted December 22, 2006 Rolo, I like the lighting and the mystery of your composition. Makes you wonder about those that carried and placed those slates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted December 22, 2006 Share #3 Posted December 22, 2006 rolo - Your "simple" image is actually sup[risingly complex and superb with its strong contrast, full tonal range, detail, depth and drama. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wide.angle Posted December 24, 2006 Share #12 Posted December 24, 2006 Very nice, was the cloud contrast from a red filter or photoshop? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolo Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share #14 Posted December 24, 2006 Very nice, was the cloud contrast from a red filter or photoshop? Hi Sctt, Obviously a trick question. Cloud contrast doesn't come from a red filter. The filters only work on the blues/greens/..... whatevers in the sceen. Blue sky can be made black, at the extreme by using a red filter, but white cloud is unaffected. One of the great advantages of taking images outdoor in the UK is the ever changing sky scenery as opposed to clear blue skys which can become repetitive if that's all on offer. Sun tans usually compensate more than enough. For years, I wanted sunshine for photography, generally now it's the last thing I want. The beauty about heavy clouds is that they are so varied and in the darkroom, or more easily in Photoshop, the dodging and burning can be exaggerated to suit your own requirements. I'll often spend more time on the sky than the rest of the image as it usually has such a big impact on the finished photograph. Hope that is informative. I never want to be regarded as a 'friggin' know all', but am happy to share what I do and why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgarvin Posted December 27, 2006 Share #16 Posted December 27, 2006 Nothing better at any standard. Do you ever work with colour 'impressions' of images as well as black and white? I could imagine that this working well in moody saturated colours as well as b/w, a different take rather than better or worse. Malcolm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could imagine that this working well in moody saturated colours as well as b/w, a different take rather than better or worse. Malcolm Malcolm, Many thanks. Kind words. I have only ever aspired to B&W photography for personal satisfaction and I always shoot B&W film. This has been driven by the desire to post process the image in the darkroom and now the lightroom. Colour has appeared in my workflow since the introduction of Photoshop and more specifically as a result of commercial and wedding photography I now find myself involved in. I've added a digital camera to my arsenal and await the enhancement of the M8. This might cause me to start using colour more than previously.

Rolo Posted January 1, 2007 Author Share #19 Posted January 1, 2007 Very dramatic image Rolo, well done. Where was this taken? CHeers, Wilfredo+ Benitez-Rivera Photography Wilfredo, it's a small country called Wales. Few people have ever heard of it. It's populated by dragons and ladies in tall hats. :-) Watching your M8 initiation with great interest ..... Take care. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
