WEEKLY THEME: Sun and Snow White Beauty
Well I've been struggling with this theme, trying to come up with something suitable.
As I Didn't know who we are honoring, his work I've looked at is intense and uniquely beautiful.
still not sure I managed one to fit the theme, but here goes...
this is a friends horse, Cricket, out on her 40 acres amongst the Piņon trees in central New Mexico.
the light was exquisite, sun just going down on the end of 2 days of gloom and snow.
all of the light hitting her lines and edges was natural, and the eye catchlight.
the color behind her was also the sun playing off the landscape.
i loved the detail in the snow and foliage in the FG.
so for this theme in PP....
Through Topaz Adjust 5 I did exposure correction, small detail finder, then the dark night ghostly texture/color, then a mild color pop and denoise.
back in PSE levels and sharpen.
taken handheld, no flash, this is full frame.
i may try to get one more photo in for the theme. Forgive me for still not being around, I've been prepping unexpectedly for another surgery happening this Friday.
