What I’ve Been Working On: trial run

I mentioned on my First Post Friday Post (see what I did there) that I started the beginnings of working on my book project.  I finally got the roll I shot developed so here is a preview of some of the shots. My 2 favorites:

Technicals:

35mm Fuji 400 speed color film

Editing:

Level & contrast adjustments in PS

Bottom photo is true to color, Top photo- color balance tweaked to bring more green out in branches

The top one is kind of uncharacteristic of me, my shots are usually straight forward but there is just something about this photo I can’t let go of, maybe its the blur in everything except that branch and the sky, I don’t know. The bottom one is more straight forward, maybe even boring to some, but I love it still.
