|  | We has a great workshop to Death Valley March 8th. We visited Dante's View, Zabriskie Point (where there were dozens of photographers!), Ubehebe Crater, Scotty"s Castle, Mesquite Flat Dunes, Titus Canyon, Rhyolite, and Artist's Palette. The weather was great for photography. Here are a few of Keith Skelton's photos. All photos were taken with a Nikon D2X, 12-24mm, 17-55mm, 70-200mm, 300mm. and a Panasonic LX2. Photos processed in Adobe Lightroom and Camera RAW. Check out the Panorama stitch.
Keep an eye out for upcoming workshops to Bodie Ghost Town and Monument Valley Arizona. |
| | Here are some photos I recently shot in downtown Los Angeles using a Nikon D2X. I've applied the Photoshop plugin "Alien Skin Exposure 2" to the photos. This provides a good simulation to many film types and processing for those that remember how film worked! I especially like the Kodachrome effects.
You can download a 30 day free trial version before investing the $249. http://www.alienskin.com/
