I hate when this happens - last night I was reviewing a cool set of photos that deliberately over-exposed images of structures, etc. It was the inspiration for the pictures below. Over-exposing is nothing new, but when something inspires me I'd like to be able to give them proper credit. Once again I have to apologize to the Unknown Photog.
Over exposing means pushing the dynamic range and ending up with black-n-white images which look very much like pencil drawings. To do that, however, you have to have a bright whites and strong shadows to start with...
Skittles, Journey and I headed off for our walk (what else is new), and returned to Windsor Lake with the over-exposure idea in mind. First thing we run into is the park bench (1st shot). After that, I just shot whatever tickled my fancy.
Each image was 2-3 stops over-exposed, then pushed further in Lightroom.
Again, am interested in hearing what you think!
Bench by the lake
Winter Tree
Overhang
(yes Virginia, I shot daylight balanced, and yet the shadows turned blue!)
Lone Tree by the Lake
Even Bigger Overhang
Somehow these feel old-school, old-tech to me. I kind of like them, actually.
Of course! I wouldn't have posed them otherwise... :)
Hope you enjoyed...
