Saturdays archive

[Ben Egbert]

I have a lot of archived shots I recently found and reprocessed. Some I had abandoned but now Photoshop and Topaz can work when only multiple images were required in the old days.

This can be a solo thing by me, or we can make it a Saturday regular if people want. So pile on

This looks like Edith Creek below Mt. Rainier near the footbridge along the path leading up from Paradise Inn. Nice sunrise capture of this locale.

Improvements in our processing software allows us to process things we never could in the past but this is also why I never cull my old captures. Disk space is far too cheap to make discarding shots you don't know how to process a worthwhile task.

Edith Creek it is, I also have a Myrtle falls image that I am saving for Wednesday.

Very nice.

What a super cool image Ben! Between the processing software getting better and getting better ourselves, I think there is a lot of photos we had given up on before that we can now save.

I think this would make for a fun Community thread Ben!

Great idea, Ben and great image as well. I had been archive diving for almost a year due to Covid-19 and found lots of images that I could salvage. I have saved all of my SDXC cards since going digital so I have a lot of potential. I also have a boatload of old slides, although unfortunately, have dumped most of what I have thought were the really bad ones. I think it would be interesting to see the before images.

Here is the before.

Here is the after.

I like your reprocessed “after” image—good job. I’ve been re-editing some of my past images due to COVID, etc. limiting our trips.

very beautiful Ben.

Beautiful image, Ben. I like your idea of ”Salvage Saturday” (please pick a better name than this) and it would be a fun exercise and excuse to do some re-editing of older files.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Good idea Douglas. I will try to include a before image.

Salvage Saturday is a much better name, I will use it.
