Love the new version of Alien Skin Exposure! It's a keeper.

No joy today

Mother Nature has canceled today's games with a lot of rain that is now ice. So sad.

predawn and the G1X

The G1X is a big improvement over my G10 in low light. This was taken predawn with no flash. ISO was 1250. Very cool.

G1 X / Lightroom 4/ Color Efex Pro

G1 X / Lightroom 4/ Color Efex Pro, a photo by Music Man5 on Flickr.

When I first got the G1 X I immediately started shooting in RAW (as is my habit) only to discover I was forced to use Canon's DDP to convert it. Until Adobe released Lightroom 4 officially. (The Beta did not have the G1 X as yet.)

So yesterday I upgraded my Beta to the trial LR 4 and now I can go back to RAW shots with the G1 X.

I spruced this image up with one of the effects (I forget which one) from NIK Color Efex Pro 4.
