Photo of the Day
Yesterday I took my daughter down to Indy to meet my brother and have a photoshoot along the canal. They dyed it green the night before, and the electric look was still in place. I really struggled with finding a good way to show how this electric green looked in respect to the surroundings. You really can’t get the height that you need on the canal. That was until I saw this pedestrian bridge. I thought that it gave me a great vantage point to shoot from. I had a fruitful day shooting, and I am sure that many more of those pictures will show up in the coming days.
Technical Data
For this photo I applied the medium HDR Look preset in Lightroom to start with. I thought that it would get me started in the right direction. From there I applied a few minor adjustments including getting rid of a couple of spots in the sky. I really debated for a while the leaves that were in the water in the foreground. In the end I used the spot removal tool inside of Lightroom to get rid of most of the leaves. The big pile was just too distracting. If this was an editorial image they would have had to stay, but thankfully this was not.
