Tree Trunk
11/18/08 I'm happy you're all curious about what happens on 11/26... you'll just have to wait, haha! Today's photo turned out interesting. There's a group of trees as I leave work, and in the late afternoon, one of the tree trunks catches the light and really stands out form the rest (well, it's also taller). This was my attempt to capture that. The color photo was pretty unimpressive, so I chose B&W. I played around with the mixer to get this look - the main thing I did was darken the blues, so you see a really dark sky, which I think looks cool. I had to correct for a lot of splotchiness that occurred after making extreme color mixer adjustments.
