Dudley Farm Storeroom

[Cheryl Slechta]

I went to an antique car show this weekend at Dudley Farm in Gainesville (a restored homestead and working farm that is a State Park). This is a 3 image HDR image processed in Photomatix. I used Topaz B&W with Simplify, Nik Silver Efex Antique Plate I and then in Nik Color I used Tonal Contrast and White Neutralizer Custom Recipe (actually it's Artie's recipe)

[Steve Adkins]

Great B&W result of your processing, Cheryl! Looks like a neat place to visit and photograph.

[Paul Lagasi]

This almost like taking a cooking class, what a recipe, tbsp of Nik, pinch of Topaz, a hint of Photomatix. A very nice resulting B & W composition. Well done

Cheryl, You did a nice job with the composition. I like the softer look that you chose for the B&W here. Nice job with the details!

[Brendan Dozier]

Beautiful B&W composition, Cheryl! Nicely framed, and excellent combination of processing. Very pleasing to the eye.

[Julie Kenward]

Very nice, Cheryl! I like the soft silvery color of the black and white here. My only thought on the comp is that perhaps its leaning a bit to the right? The boards in the BG and the chest on the floor are both leaning a bit...maybe a bit of ccw rotation?

[Maureen Allen]

Really nice, Cheryl. Looks like a great place to go!

[Mark Fuge]

Nice image and application, Cheryl.

Like the soft touch of the HDR and the tones of the image.

[Indranil Sircar]

Very nice, Cheryl. Excellent subject for b&w and very nice processing. TFS.

[Christopher Miller]

Sounds like a very interesting and fun place, Cheryl. I love the antique look to this, and it's a perfect subject for it.

[Anita Bower]

Nice job! This is a pleasing composition and your post-processing brings out the best!

[Anita Bower]

Congratulations!! Well deserved.
