About Trying something new and different with a nighttime shot of Manhatten Beach taken from an empty lifeguard tower. As you might have guessed, I did do a tad bit of editing . . . Conversion to B&W with NX; Light adjustment; Sepia toning; edge burning and framing. Also some use of PSE 6. Shooting for an old photo look. :)

(18mm; 1/20 sec.; F/3.5; ISO 1600)

Jan Hoffman   {K:38981} 2/3/2008
Doyle -- The scene was perfect to try the parchment effect and the scalloped framing. Outstanding results. The post processing also does a good job masking the noise that must have been there considering the ISO speed and exposure.
--Best regards, Jan


Doyle D. Chastain   {K:99493} 2/3/2008
LoL! Thanks Jan! And VERY perceptive too! The 1600 ISO and complete darkness did add some grain . . . which, while nice in B&W . . . seemed perfect for me to try some play with!

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~
