Turning my attention from the Lowry, I caught sight of this man bringing his child out for a walk (and taking pictures of him presumably). Seeing a photo-opportunity myself, I took a quick snap of him just as he was about to adjust his son’s jacket. I like the strong pattern and framing formed by the suspension bridge, which I have further enhanced here with a solarization filter.
This was shot at the jetty where I took my previous post. Again, the Red Rule came into play here. I have solarised the background of the image to make the subjects stand even further out in the picture.
Even before we arrived at Mount Bromo on our first day there, we were already stopping our transport numerous times just to get off to admire and capture the scenery. This hut sat opposite the place I shot “Golden Lollipop”. The silhouette of the hut set against the interesting profiles of the trees caught my attention.
The original shot of this was in colour. There were some infra-red photography enthusiasts among our group who went to town with the subject material available in the area (with custom-modified 20Ds for IR). Currently, I don’t think I will ever bear to customize any of my DSLRs for IR (the customization is permanent), so I’ll have to make do with this post-Photoshop, faux infrared version :P.
