The anniversary of Lennon's death had me going through some of my NYC photos that never really made it out of my Lightroom before..

The photo of the Brooklyn Bridge is gorgeous.

I agree, but isn't it a little underexposed? (Maybe this is by design, in which case, never mind.)

Yes, it was by design. Lotta adjustments to the black and shadows.

It has been a very long time since I added anything to this thread.

Here is a shot I took at the The Big Chill hockey game at Michigan Stadium on Saturday. Over 100K people to see a college hockey game.

Very nice DA. Did you make any adjustments to that? That looks like it would be difficult to expose with such bright lights and a dark background. Did you use spot metering?

Yes. Lots of adjustments and photoshopping.

I recently discovered the wonderful world of TOPAZ LABS tools. Very cool stuff.

Topaz has some really cool stuff. I have it but don't use it as much as I should.

Bob Feller died last night. He was a true American hero. Here he is in 2005 at Indians spring training.

I have heard many people rave about Topaz. I will have to look into it.

To the topaz users...

Do you have the bundle or individual plug-ins?

I am just wondering if it would be worth getting the bundle or if the Adjust plug-in would do most of what I need. I guess I will just have to download it and try it.

I use an iMac and I bought the bundle. It plugs into photoshop and shows up under "filters"

I would download it and try it out. If you like it, you can purchase and they send you a code to unlock the full version.

I did not take this pic, but recently purchased this 1970 negative on eBay.
The unique feature and the reason I love this picture is Larry Hisle has the new (at the time) Phillies "P" on his uniform and the old "P" on his helmet.

I finally got around to organizing and hosting all the Vintage Phillies negatives/slides I have collected over the years.

Nice camera. I don't really follow pricing for Canon but it sounds reasonable.
