In Solvang
Date: November 19, 2008
Location: Solvang
Camera: Sony DSC-P150
The date goes back to November 19, 2008, Approximately three before I started going out with Erica. It was quick one-day-trip to San Luis Obispo, and we stopped by at Solvang on the way back home. Ann is seen on the right side holding her cellphone.

Description
I can't identify the cause of wierd color bleeding on right bottom corner. I tried to fix it and made it worse. This would have been much much better if I used about 50 or 100 film speed. It had too much grains so I had to bur the background little bit and it ruined the image. DSLR ftw. I didn't ask them btw. lol.

Description
This is a mostly pure result of technology, Photoshop. The sky wasn't that gold. I changed it. I added a thick orange filter, also stretched to the sides with content-aware scaling. The Lion-King-like reflection on windows of the building is real tho. I took about 20 shoots to grab the light and this is only one of them. I dodged the building without care.

I used almost two rolls to get this one fucking image. I didn't know whether to crop the bottom part to make it stable but I didn't. This unusual long ratio is the key of this image. The reflection on the sea is well distributed and warm and cold colors are well mixed. Btw, there is a strange optical illusion in this photo. Do you see the little bit tilted horizon? It's actually perfect horizon without tilting but it looks tilted. It's prolly that mountain.

Description
Little bit out-focused but still the luckiest shot ever. It's 100% crop and the seagull is still on center. Lens flare on the right side makes the image even more beautiful. I added serious vignetting so that the bird looks more focused. I blurred the mountain on the back a lot.
Teal Splash

Nikon F, 50mm f/1.4
Description
It was lucky that light sparklings on water makes beams which I have no idea how to control. I cropped here and there to remove unimportant elements and to make rule-of-third frame. I adjusted level and added blue filter to make teal more visible. The guardrail and its shadow makes weird angles all over the frame. I blurred front and rear guardrails so that Erica looks clearer. Also added vignetting and dodged on her.
Separation

Description
I took this from the pier, pointing camera directly down. The wave was moving from right to left, and tried to shoot the exact moment where the wave takes half of the frame. I sharpened the image so that water splash looks more coming up and also dodged a lot on half and burned a lot on other half, to make division, or separation more distinguishable. I switched to B&W to emphasize the difference of light between those two sides.
