Cool Shot (Jason and Wendy, Cameron Highlands)

Simple color adjustments in LR2 to bring out the mood in photo.

B: Here's one that's has been thru a selective desaturation process in LR2. Not a complete black and white, with some contrast boost, and some pink and red retained. Also, its been cropped a little bit to fit the mood that I'm going for.

This one now hangs as a canvas print in my room.

Photo credits to John Ling and Jason Wong of FingerOnShutter.com. Thanks guys for the photo I'll cherish the most from our long trek up the HILL!!

About Me

My photo
Photography has been a passion of mine for a very long time. I still remember back there, I found an old 110 format camera in one of the drawers at home, so I went and load that one up with some color 110 film, had a bit of fun shooting it. Back then, processing film was expensive, and nope, my allowance didn't cover that at all. But I remember, the resulting photos were very 'LOMOish'. Guess that's my first LOMO ... In my high skool days, I picked up a second hand Olympus Trip 35, with its quicky guestimate focusing system. Colors from it were kind 'yellow' tinged cause by its lens that was kind of 'moldy'. Moldy or not, I shot a lot of skool band pics!! I ended up with an compact automatic when started Uni ... and I finally lost it on a trip to India. Left it on the plane. Got my first SLR back in 2001 I think, a brand new Nikon FM10. That's when the journey of serious photography started. And today, and today, after many years, and 'graduating' from the G5 ... to the G7 to the 400D and 40D ... and finally 5D Mark II, Hehehehe ... ... I still am plodding away, trying to create my own art.
