Salvage Saturday

[Ben Egbert]

Not really a salvage but some IR shots I reprocessed trying a different look.

Beautiful IR rendering Jameel. Glad you posted it.

This image was originally taken for the larger mix of flowers. I didn't like the image when I looked at it after getting home, so it has been sitting in my archives. After looking at it a second time I saw the pink Monkey flowers and decided to try and isolate that. Here is the original and the salvage.

Amazing work coaxing this detail out of such a heavy crop. Beautiful result.

This was taken in late March of '09 on an anniversary trip to Mendocino. About 2 weeks after my other Calle Lily shots near Carmel.
I spotted these on the way to our accomodations at the light house captains place (turned into a B&B). So naturally had to get up at sunrise to chase these.
Should have bracketed as the highlights & shadows
My framing skills lacking, I think the tree is too prominate-middle. I've tried some crops but it loses the mood

Dan, I like the composition with the lilies making a diagonal, the centered tree does not bother me at all.

Ken, I bet these were beautiful before the re-edit, but I am glad you did and showed them here.

Ben I had only processed the first image. The last 3 have been processed for the first time here. Ken
