Wednesday, July 29, 2015. RRPC Field Trip: Benjamin, TX. Satellite view of Jim Bob Art Park and Nature Trail (Google Earth). We arrive to the park just in time to catch the sun going down. I was only able to make one image of with the sun in the frame. I would like to come back and shoot more sunsets at this location. Members of the RRPC gathered all their gear and began shooting the sunset over the amazing vista. Beautiful sunset over "The Narrows". A lot of the members went home after 12am (understanda...

Thursday, November 27, 2014. Arkansas 2014: Day 2. DAY 2: Sunrise from Grandview Vista, Cossatot River, Highway 278, and Sunset at Lake Wilhelmina. Without a doubt, the best view of the byway. We are looking south and the sun over to our left just now rising over the mountains. I had hoped we would see some dramatic light. A thin layer of fog down in the valleys. And a thick layer of fog over Lake Wilhelmina. We would return to the lake later that evening for sunset photos. This was actually a little bet...

Saturday, March 16, 2013. Disclaimer I use an older version of Photoshop mainly because I don't need any other version for what I do. Some of these filters may be named differently.* *. Basically there are four different sharpening techniques: Sharpen, Unsharp Mask, Smart Sharpen, High Pass Sharpen. Here is a 100% crop of the unsharpened image. As you can tell this photo is already sharp, but I want to sharpen for printing purposes here. Filter Sharpen Unsharp Mask. This is the Unsharp Mask menu. The...
