A shed in the country.

Hunky Dorys TM2 8585

I remember a while back when the 'Wonderbra' billboard ads decorated the Irish landscape and the uproar they caused. That was back in the early 90's. We've come a long way since then though, haven't we!?

Terminal 2. Dublin Airport

T2 P1000050

Absolutely coming back here for a Black & White shoot. 'Flying' visit to the airport today but stole a few minutes to take some photos of the new Terminal 2 building with my Lumix compact.

The Parlor

The Parlor TM2_8018

Photo: Hand-held. ISO 400. 10mm wide-angle lens. 1/80 @ f/4. SB 800 on-camera @1/2 bounced vertically (the ceiling was very dark so the light spill was very subtle).
In ACR, I adjusted the white balance only and opened it in PS. I subsequently adjusted the Curve slightly via the colour channels. A Warm Filter adjustment layer was added at 40% to bring back some warmth and atmosphere. Next I done a little canvas rotation using 'Transform' to straighten the verticals and cropped. I finished it by running a Guy Gowen sharpening action pulled back to 30%.
