F Monday everyone!

Its a tad late for F Monday but never the less here it is!

So this Mondays featured Flickr group is: HDR http://www.flickr.com/groups/hdr/

This Group is all about HDR.
HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. I will be doing a tutorial about HDR in the next week or so. 

I really love some of the shots in this group such as these two shots I liked in the pool.

Shot 1: 
All credit for this shot goes too: http://www.flickr.com/photos/36831527@N02/

I love the detail in this image, the sky is very impacting and very contrasty, also the detail in the building is very nice


Shot 2:

I love it when people HDR buildings because you get all the fine details in the image such as the brick work and even the dirt on the ground, this image has to be one of my favourite HDR images that I have seen so far, I love the colour and the perspective of the stairs.

Please look out in the next couple of weeks on a post about HDR photography.

That's it for this Monday! see you all tomorrow :)

Let's have a catch up!

Time To catch up and get sorted! apologises for not posting much this week I will be back on track soon :)
I've combined Thursdays film day and F Fridays together for this week

Here we go! So this weeks Flickr Group is: "Cross Processing - Film Only"


I really love this group as Cross Processing i feel is amazing but when you do it film it takes a whole new level!
The colours of a cross processed image will very but for the most part they are very green cast or a very blue cast .
Traditional Cross Processing is done by processing film in the wrong colour chemicals. Results can very from  film to film. Most companies will cross process you film for free or for an extra pound or so. One british company that still does this is DSCL colour labs : http://www.dscolourlabs.co.uk/

Photos From the pool

So here is are two of the photos i liked from the pool 
First: Is this shot from: http://www.flickr.com/photos/julius68/

I really love the colours in this image with the warm and cool tones






Second: This shot is from: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37461467@N00/

I love the difference in contrast compared to the previous one, this image has really cool tones in the background. Also if I was to compare the two I love the difference of nature and man made.

I feel these two images are really good but there are just as good ones in the pool!

A Change Of Plan

OK so its Wednesday...

Wednesdays are supposed to be Idea and Concepts HOWEVER for the lack of ideas that I can come up with at the moment!! Wednesdays are going to be YouTube Wednesdays! Where i will be posting great photography related YouTubers! with either great ideas and techniques for you to try or some editing tutorials! 

Also I would like to apologize for no photographic technique yesterday but there will be one next week!

Ok so this weeks YouTuber is!!

He is a Photoshop/Adobe Expert!!
He has some great detailed but quick tutorials! 


I particular like this tutorial because it doesn't last for too long and if very informative. If this isn't your thing for Photoshop then browse through his videos and you may find something that may interest you. Well that's it for this Wednesday! 

Thanks for Reading
