Out of the Box Image of the Week for the week ending June 22nd, 2012: John Storjohann - Sacred Lotus
Congratulations John!!!
Spent some time at the Botanicals yesterday with Jay...the Lotus are nearing peak already...last week there were only about 10 blooms. ISO of 800, f/16@1/125, 180mm macro with 1.4x teleconverter attached. RAW image processed in LR; cropped to create a pano of the Lotus. Used Fractalius on a separate layer and lowered the opacity to 46 percent to bring back some detail and depth; used Topaz Simplify-BuzzSim on a layer with the blend mode set to Saturation and the opacity lowered to 76%.
