Woah…I posted this at first without text…inadvertently. I’m having some WP issues today!
I did want to say that this image was taken from Fort Baker on the northern side of the Golden Gate Bridge. The light was awful if you can believe it. The bridge was almost silhouetted! Just goes to show what Photoshop can do on a RAW image.
Here I was experimenting with blending modes and selections, so this is what I ended up with!
She’s Bold

She’s bold, you’re bold. Excellent photo Laura! I was just on the beautiful GG Bridge yesterday afternoon as the sun was setting. It was unusually clear and the sun was sinking into the Pacific–there must’ve been three dozen appreciative tourists with their cellphones snapping photos. A bridge so bold that none of us can get enough of her….

Ohhh that sounds really lovely yesterday! I love what you said there at the end. It’s so true! How many shots of her do I have? You’d think I was a tourist! I had a camera club event scheduled for tomorrow at Fort Point but I had to move it. Tomorrow is rain. Thanks so much for your comments!

I love Photoshop. Many a iffy image I’ve made into something useable, if not creatively pretty. I love this!

Thank you Debi. I do the same thing! I started teaching photoshop and lightroom last year and I’m really ramping that up. Seems a lot of people are interested in it.

I’m in the process of learning Lightroom, Laura. David duChemin has a half-off price on his 20 video teaching tool about it. I’m great on Photoshop but Lightroom is new to me.

Glad you found a good tutorial. I adore LR. It’s a fantastic workflow management and image organization tool!

It’s a dramatic image Laura……i think because of the sky
November 18, 2016 at 10:40 am
Thanks Mark. It’s more on the artsy-side than a photograph but this is how I learn…pushing myself to do new things.

But photography is art Laura 😊

Beautiful and boldly done, Laura! Wow. Would not have guessed the light was falling the wrong way. Amazing red against such a warm sky. Photoshop 👌

Sorta but it’s been raining here for a couple days.
November 20, 2016 at 6:19 pm
It’s raining a little here too, Laura. Hopefully we will recover from the drought one of these days.
November 21, 2016 at 7:56 am
I’m glad to hear it’s raining down there. I think we are almost normal here. I did check the weather out and it’s supposed to be nice when we get down there the end of this week.
November 21, 2016 at 2:00 pm
It rained most of last and a little this morning, but now it is sunny again. It should be nice for your trip. Yay!
