Going Wide

Weekly Photo Challenge – Club P52 – Wide Angle Lens

The last week has been a catch-up week for us as everyone was busy with life stuff. Our latest assignment was to use a wide angle lens for something other than a big, expansive landscape. We were going to try to look for creative ways to use all that angular light collection. Shall we see how well I accomplihed our task…

What was I thinking?

I am not exactly sure what my frame of mind was yesterday when I posted the image of Little Pixley Falls. Although I am happy with the composition I would have normally processed the image as monochrome. So, as an immediate redo, here is the image that was in my head when I clicked the shutter…

I’m going to blame the oops moment on me signing up for the Adobe Photographer Create Cloud program which allows me to use Lightroom (which I have since I started this journey) and Photoshop. I have been using Photoshop Elements but the cost difference between upgrading Elements and buying into this program just made sense for me. Luckily most of the basic functionality is the same so I was able to jump right in but I am looking forward to learning what the big brother Photoshop can do. 🙂
