Thanks for the entries people, great job! My apologies for not choosing something that could have been more widely enjoyed by everyone. I went back and forth on this one. I enjoyed all of them but going to give it to @SMKYTXN , a lot going on in there.

 

Thanks @TBuzz ! I have a good idea for the next challenge. One that pulls from one of the aspects of my photo. I'll send @medic2230 a PM.

 

@TXSmiley Have a look.

 

New Challenge: Motion Blur

One entry per person and due this Sunday at midnight of your local time. Photo must be taken from the time of this post. Good luck everyone. Go!

 

Ought to be a good one! whish I was home this week

 

quick white balance adjustment makes for a much more dynamic shot.

 

Not that I can win, but here's tonight's efforts.





A second edit with one extra exposure.

 

Now this looks like a fun thread, I'll have to get off the couch sometime and take some pictures I guess

 

Great shot man!

 

Thanks bud!

 

Love the second edit!

 

What kind of post production do you use? The distortion should easily be fixed by most post-production software.

 

I'm working with the Adobe CC suite, and that's probably my third attempt at post processing. I'm working through youtube videos and whatnot to try and figure this stuff out. I'll take any constructive criticism you've got.

I used PS for the first edit and LR for the second.

 

I had the same issue with a vertical panorama I took on here almost 2 years ago. After the fact when it was critiqued, and I agreed the buildings were tilted in too much, did some research and found it was called keystoning. At the time all I had was LR and Gimp. I was able to correct it in Gimp. Damn I've learned a lot on here now if only I could remember it all...

2 weeks ago went to CC because picked up a new laptop and wasn't going to pay for a version of LR when a new one should be out soon. Haven't had much time to play with PS but helped mac heads in marketing departments with it more than 20 years ago when it was the standard, but only to get it to run not work in it.

Here is a link to fix perspective keystoning in PS. It is very powerful and will do a lot. But GIMP was a lot easier to do it in LOL.

 

So we are on motion blur challenge?

 

I'll throw one in for this week:

 

Hope this counts as motion blur
.

 

love this panning shot

Sad I've been so busy these last couple weeks, would have loved to enter this one.
Should finish moving after next week then I'll have time to get out again!
