Creative Expressions #200 Road to oblivion | Fishing | My Gull Buddy | Rainbow! |
Thanks to DarkLogix , I'm proud to host the this week's creative expressions. Congratulations, this is # 200! These are images from my recently completed vacation in Quebec. I chose images that would best suit this thread - they are begging to be modified. I left out all the incredible sunrises, critters, and weather shots. For later... All files are exported from RAW to jpg format with maximum quality. DSC_0006, the road to Oblivion: 4 hours up this road to the base camp. 4 hours back. It's loose packed gravel on dirt washboard. From there, it's a floatplane ( De Havilland Beaver) to the cabin. For pickup trucks or serious SUVs only. A memorable experience, to say the least. DSC_0477, Fishing: What we spent most of the time doing. The weather was wind, rain, and white-cap conditions on the lake (part of the Gouin Reservoir) a lot of the time. Normal for this area. DSC_0467, my gull buddy: This seagull (and his friends) followed us around the area almost every day. He's looking for some handouts. Cropped down from the original, then scaled for best resolution (1024 on longest side). DSC_0438, Rainbow!: I was running out the cabin to catch it. It was in front of me, moved further away, then gone all in 2 minutes. Look closely and you'll see the double rainbow. We had a rainbow 5 straight days in a row - that's what you get in the late afternoon after the thunderstorms roll through. The rainbow is scaled to be 1024 on the shortest side for the most resolution. The original RAW file at 3900 x 2613 looks awesome. Please post your submissions scaled to 1024 maximum on the longest side (but I won't complain if you want to keep the rainbow resolution as-is). |

I haven't begun to work on these images, but I sure look forward to doing so. You underestimate your caption with the rainbow in it. Most people find it tough to get one. You got a double. |

Caution, entering Toontown. Shamelessly borrowing from an idea in last week's thread. GIMP. Cartoon, levels. |

A splash of color. This was tricky, as it's impossible to select a fuzzy rainbow. GIMP. Desaturate on a new layer (top), brightness / contrast. Erase to show the rainbow underneath. Blur, smudge, dodge (for the water) as needed to blend with the bottom layer. Bottom layer: Saturate, levels to bring out the rainbow. |

Lost again, are we? GIMP. Nemo, Dory, and friend - each on a different layer, opacity reduced to appear under water. |
