Seasons Greetings

xmas

Seasons Greetings and thank you to all who have supported the Camera’s View over the last year.

Due to other commitments I have not been able to spend as much time as I would like with both my photography, development of templates and providing content on the Camera’ s View. It is my intention to spend more time on both during the next year.

About the Image: I captured this image in Wolfeboro New Hampshire . Captured RAW , post processed with Lightroom and secondary post processing with Photoshop to remove some objects and apply filter effects.

Editor’s Choice

Those following this blog know that I’m a member of the National Association of Photoshop ProfessionalsNAPP

This week I had the privilege of having one of my images selected as Editor’s Choice.

This image is a composite of two HDR images to create a panoramic image.

The original images were captured in exposures of 0 ev, 2 ev, -2 ev, 1 ev and -1 ev. The individual exposures for each image were then combined using Photmatix Pro.  The resultant images were then further refined in Lightroom before being merged into a panoramic image with Photoshop.

Framing Selector Template ….

Been playing around with the idea of a quick way to see how an image might look when it is framed.

Several issues needed to be addressed -

  • What type of framing ?
  • Do you use a mat ?
  • Do you present the image in landscape or portrait orientation ?
  • Is the image better off as a panorama or maybe a square mounting ?

If you are a regular follower of this blog, you know that I like to do these “what ifs” with in Adobe Lightroom™.

Here is the results of my latest experiment -

frame-selector

If you would like to try out this template, here is the link -framing_selector

Note: to change the position of an image within a frame, toggle the identity plate to be behind the image as shown here -

Toggle

Then while holding down the Ctrl key, click on the image and reposition as desired. When satisfied, uncheck the “render behind image”.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks !
