The assigned category of Architecture gave me an excuse to finally get downtown Grants Pass to take a set of photos of this iconic building. Although it is a nice yellow with a red door, I felt it needed an old film look to it. Carefully aligning the front hand real with the double doors, I created a nice symmetry. The image was captured just after sunset and processed in Photoshop with help from Silver Efex Pro for the black and white conversion.

Two images edited together to create the illusion of the camera sucking the landscape image into the camera and showing up on the back screen. The Altered Reality section of the competition allows for creating something you can’t see in reality. I had a vision of creating a fun expression of what a camera does as well as showing motion.

Rose’s comments on her image ; My model and I were actually setting up for a night shoot, but the sun was setting and coming in just right on her face and I snapped this quickly. This is one of those ‘being in the moment’ shots! 🙂 F5.6, 1/30, ISO 1600 EOS R Canon, 18-135 lens.
Rose’s comments on her image; This was a planned shot, just about didn’t get there fast enough for the blue hour. We had lighting issues that my team and I worked out. Keeping a model warm is my first priority, so I have to work fast in the cold weather as well as considering her safety. EOS R 19-135 lens F5.6, 20, ISO100 on Bulb 20sec.
This is a composite of the Northern Flicker and the tree. Normally you would see an Acorn Woodpecker on the tree as they stash the acorns in the trees. The Flicker eats acorns, but does not put them in trees. I should have named this “Stealing The Stash”. 🙂
