A Walk in the Woods on an Autumn Afternoon : (repeated with commentary).


All these pics are from a blog post over at my other blog ... This Handmade Life. But as the post was comprised of all photos from a recent walk I took with my son ... I thought it wise to share the post here as well.

I tried a little something new with all of these ... I cropped all the original photos down to 8x10 from an approx. 8x12 format. The sizing looks a bit strange to me, but deciding what was best to leave out was an interesing process. All pics were taken with my straight Nikkor 60 mm lens. Usually the apeture was either wide open or between 5-8. All at ISO 200.

Enjoy! And thanks for looking.

Playing with HDR & Lomo Effects.


All post-processed using http://www.picnik.com/. All photos taken in Belfast, Maine on Labor Day weekend.

I am experimenting with the over-sharp & grainy look of HDR while also adding the rich colors of "Lomoish". I love the rich surreal feel to these images. Some came out better than others. What do you think?
Love,
Jodi
