Thursday’s Task: Looking over the overlooked...perhaps in your archive. My examples below:
October, 2016
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, CO
October, 2016
Colorado National Monument, CO
I thought they were pretty good - inspiration to go look for shots that got left behind for some reason or another.I hope FocalWorld members like my self-deprecating captions over my archive images!![]()
Amazing outcome—I wouldn’t have thought to have try the generative fill option and thinking “outside the landscape box” too! Thank you for sharing this image Jameel.Another interesting 'task'. I will go a different direction with this one. Here is an image (although not landscape) that I took of the ceiling of the Griffith observatory in LA. This was a family trip and I had only carried a single body with a single zoom lens. The wide end of the zoom wasn't sufficient to capture the ceiling and I left this image to languish till I ran into this week's task. So I decided to see what generative fill can do to salvage this.
Let me know how believable is this.

Phoenix gets hot in the summer? Who knew?I've been going through my archives and came upon this image from a hike we did around 2007 in north Phx. It was summer so we hit the trail early, because it gets hot quickly here in the Sonoran.
The lighting was perfect, but I never really liked any of the images I created, until yesterday when I converted it to gray scale and did some basic adjustments with our modern tools. Let me know what you think.

Sonny, excellent B&W edit of your first image—love the backlit composition with an interesting foreground too! I like the rim light on the cactus in the foreground and the starburst on the saguaro on the horizon in your second image.

I just revisited this image, and this is how I remember that morning.
