Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

Cheers to Molly

I love this picture:

Massimo took it. He edited it one way. I edited it another. I combined our edits in layers using Photoshop. I think the blend is perfect.

I love Molly. It sucks that Bickett Gallery closed, but I know she’ll do many more great things.

This seems a bit too over-photoshopped to me so I’m curious what the original is like. I like the composition of it. It kind of just looks like she’s been cut and paste into place. hmmm…

The original was EXTREMELY dark. My version was mostly made sepia, then lightened a bit. Here it is:

Massimo tends to be pretty heavy handed with photoshop. It was a tricky picture to salvage. Because of the low light in the original photo, the ISO had to be very high to get a picture, but then a lot of grain was left. He removed most of the grain, but I felt like he also took out too much detail in the process. I split the difference in that first version I posted.
