Scrap yard

So when I see a photo I want I take a couple of shots... So I know at least one will turn out nice.

Next I upload it I see what needs to be done.. some times it is already perfect!


I took this photo yesterday at the metal scrap yard, I love this poor doomed blazer.
But I think it needs something more..


I tried cropping it , that was not what it needed.


So I got the original and played with the coloring..
I LOVE this coloring! but I also want a picture of it in it's real colors.


here is another shot of it.

I cropped it, I like this shot cropped but the color is still off.

So I give it a bit more saturation and warm it a bit and...

Ta Da!

  2. Great semi-tutorial! I always like watching the process. You should check out my boyfriend's blog. He's getting his BFA in photography. His blog is http://jeffreyopp.blogspot.com. His website has color photos though. www.jeffreyopp.com
