A new twist on an old image from a previous series. I decided to take another look at editing one of my winter images from 2017. I converted it to black and white, and then added a lot of contract to the lower half of the image to bring out the reflections on the ice crust on top of the snow on the ground. It had rained recently and then frozen hard afterwards.
Daring to be different ICM - Intentional Camera Movement ... This capture is a blend of two different images taken at the same location and time. One of the shots was moved vertically to create the blurred movement within the scene, while the other shot was taken normally, fully in focus and sharp and crisp. When back at home, I took both photos into Photoshop and using some layer masks, slowly blended the two images together mamking a composite image blending the two scenes together to make one unique image.
While out in California attending a photography workshop being run by Joseph Rossbach, I was wandering around looking for looking for interesting scenes, I became interested and focused on this desolate road. While the workshop group was there photographing only one car drove by in the two hours that we were there.
