A Few More from Saturday

Lets set the stage. Atlanta. August. Temp is 101. Humidity around 90%. Put on a suit and tie and go take some photos outdoors.

Scroll to the bottom of this post to see two photos that I combined to get the shot I had in my head when I took it. You have to take both photos exposed differently intentionally in order to make it work. It was not a simple "Cut and Paste" job as the tones were different and there was no real detail in the evening sky. Making the sky blend smoothly was the most difficult part.
I will put this bottom photo on my next Instructional video and show how it was done. I will do the sign on the rock wall thing also. I am not finished with the sign photo yet but wanted to post it anyway.

One more thing, I decided to name the photo on the swing "Play Mate, Soul Mate" Is that to cheesy or does it work? Comments please. And don't e mail me, actually post a comment. It is not that hard people.

And one more thing. You two in Antigua. Quit looking at this blog and get back to honeymooning !

I like the 'Play Mate, Soul Mate.' Very fitting for that image...

I don't think it's cheesy, but then, I'm just a sentimental old fool! And I like the rock wall/logo thing. I think that's a great treat for the couple.

I love the title of the pay mate picture. It's very sweet. I love the sign on the wall! That is a great idea, I'm gonna have to try that out sometime. Everything looks beautiful as always!
