Par 4

Posted by Mike on

Last night my daughter and I went for a walk around the block. Now out here in the middle of nowhere that means a nice little 4 mile walk. I attached my 35mm f/1.8 lens on the camera and we headed out. We had a great time and I got a chance to explore with the camera. It is something we are going to do more often. As we passed the golf course on the home stretch I couldn’t pass up the sunset…

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. 🙂
