This n That!
Between challenging winter weather and me just moving pretty slow, I've only gotten a few shots off in February. And since there weren't enough of any particular shots/locations, I've just lumped several small shoots or individual pics together into one page. Just be aware that each section here was shot on different days.
Yellow River at a very high flow
One image in three different treatments, natural color, black and white and then black and white with split toning. This image is a composite of 96 images shot on tripod in 4 brackets of 24 images each -- each bracket approximately 2/3rds stop aperture separation. Each 24 image bracket was mean averaged into a single image and then the 4 resulting bracketed images were brought in as layers into Photoshop and selectively paint blended into thie first resulting natural color image image with a bit of Orton effect (think shimmer) applied to the water. Then the black and white and tones images were created from the color image.
Schneider Kreuznach Rollei SL-Xenon 1.8/50mm
Each of the 96 shots at f16 and ISO 100 with exposure brackets varying from 1/160th second down to 1/30th second.
The shot of the eddy pool is f11, brackets of three exposures at 1/100th, 1/40th and 1/25th seconds, ISO 100
Old Bibb Textile Mill on the Yellow River, Porterdale, GA.
Taken on Feb 8th after rain the previous evening. The Yellow River begins a little ways northeast from my house and is fed by a number of creeks as it winds it's way south -- ultimately making a quite impressive show at the falls in Porterdale.
Bibb Mill later became Dan River Mill, closing in the 80's and now converted into The Mill Lofts housing.
