It is that time of the week again. It is kinda crazy that the week is almost over, I feel like it just started. The days went really slowly, but here we are at Friday, and it is time for another feature photo. The photo below is from the publicity photo call for Our Town at the Pioneer Theatre.

As the story takes place around the turn of the twentieth century, it seemed appropriate to “age” the image. The original image can be seen here. I also wanted to try out some of the great new features in Aperture 3 which made achieving this look really easy. Personally, I love the sepia look along with the softened skin textures. I also added a vignette to the image but it is pretty subtle.

I would love to hear any comments or critiques that anyone has on this image or any of the images in the galleries that I have linked to.

"Steam into the Past" - Golden Spike National Historic Site

Utah has a lot of interesting history. For those who don’t remember their American history, the Golden Spike National Historic site is there the railroads spanning the country finally met. The site is in Promontory, Utah only a short way from the Great Salt Lake. Other than that, it is really in the middle of nowhere. The Jupiter locomotive was on the eastbound track.

This image was shot with a Nikon D100 with a 10mm full-frame fisheye lens. The sepia and vignette were added in post. As always, comments and criticism are welcome and encouraged! You can see more by visiting my photo site.
