I have many photos that I want to go back and re-shoot. I'm sure that we all have the same collections of "Someday".
This is one of mine taken about 5 years ago with a Nikon P100. Not a bad camera but it doesn't provide raw files and the original of this needed help. I intend to be in the area this summer and I will try this again. (With better equipment)

Where I am in Pike county we have the remnants of the D&H canal system so, that looked similar.

no probs, I weren't sure if that was a place that I didn't know ?? (LOL) Leicester is more or less mid way in the country, top to bottom annd left to right. I'm a biker and there's a pub near Leicester we meet at occasionally, it's name is "The Gate Hangs Well" please don't ask how it got it's name as I haven't got a clue ??? (LOL)


Looks like my kind of place! Well at least it would have 'back in the day'

If I may, where along the Delaware was that taken? It looks like it once was used as part of a canal (tow path) or had a railroad along it's banks.

sorry but where is Liechester(S?) or did you mean Leicester ?


I will take your local knowledge over my lack of it. I was guessing at the spelling, hence the (S?) :lol:

thank you Linda
Minnie you are the second person who suggested blue...and as I already made it but did not like it as much two recommendations must be considered so Ill show you and hope to hear your thoughts.
McVeed...I couldn't ESCAPE the idea that this image was more of a Canalscape then a Landscape. What drew me to it were the sycamores that hung over the canal white in the right light, which I was actually a bit to early for.


I feel that the blue tint needs to be subtle to give a hint of "cold". In your photo it is too strong and approaches being colorized rather than being tinted.

Not really. You have to believe it is the best opinion, otherwise you wouldn't hold it! We are so damned Politically correct these days, nobody is willing to say, "You're wrong, and I'm right!".


Isn't that the truth! Even when all the facts are are your side, PC insists that you play nice and give the other side the benefit of the doubt.

For the D600; in the custom settings menu both A1 and A2 should be set to release.

Dave

Thank you Dave! This one also felt like it should be in B&W because of the age of the equipment. (I had posted this B4 on UHH)

While I agree with you I'll have to say, anymore, when I see that a conversation is turning into an argument, my mind pushes the ignore button.

Dave, I agree with both you and Linda as I find with most threads that after a certain point I'm not learning anything and I 'unwatch' after that point. (This thread is at 18 pages and I'm still watching, something good must be going on here.) :)

Thank you for a varied set, all converted well. Some thoughts on the images and conversions: The first one with the tree is one of those landscape images that doesn't have a highly dramatic type subject but is still pleasant. I think if you cropped the right side to near the rock it would be stronger, letting the lines lead to the three, and not have so much dead area on the other side. the second shot is a bother. It ought to be wonderful, but it doesn't grab the viewer. I wonder if a more dramatic conversion playing more with the mist and light would help? The third and fourth one have stronger details, strong blacks and whites, more distinct curves and lines and angles. They work well.

Good examples of seeing in black and white both before and after the shoot.

Thank you for your input. I appreciate your advice and will play around with the images a bit.

All I can say is, "I wish I had seen that!" some subjects do talk to you don't they?

Linda None of these were shot with the intention of using "gray scale". All of them were lacking something in color but were telling me that there was a decent image in there somewhere.
