Pete’s Silly Sideshow

Posted by Mike on

Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World

During my August trip, this was my first evening at the Magic Kingdom in between the rain. Everything about this area really stands out for me. I love the circus theme. The colors were working well with the sunset sky. Pete is larger than life but fits with the show. So glad I bought the wide-angle lens. I used every bit of it for this one…

Something Different

Letchworth State Park

I have been fascinated with the Prisma app for the way I can change a photograph into something different. My issue is the app is only for my phone. I have been working on utilizing Topaz Labs Abstraction plugin which is now incorporated into their Studio 2 program. My hope is I can arrive at an image that looks like a watercolor painting.

This is one of my early attempts. The original image, New Bridge, was captured last year at Letchworth State Park. I still have some refinements to the process I need to try but I think I am getting closer…

One of my favorite apps to process images on my phone is Prisma by Prisma Labs. I really put the app through it’s paces during my last Disney trip, you can see the results here. I have been playing with Topaz Labs Studio 2 recently trying to re-create the look I like from the Prisma app. Topaz Labs has quite a few different plug-ins/apps for processing images and their Abstraction tool has been the one I am currently playing with. I’m getting closer to the look I want…

Another Lensball moment from my early morning excursion to Stow, NY while visiting my Mom. I definitely need to go looking for more lighthouses…
