Photo – Urban Parasaurolophus

"I'm so glad I moved out the suburbs, those T. Rex neighbors were so freakin' LOUD."

I asked Twitter on Monday,

“If you could have a (tame) dinosaur as your mount in a barren, post-apocalyptic wasteland, which would it be?”

Read some of the responses after the break.

Fixing a Photo’s Flat Color in Photoshop

Left: the original color of the photo I shot. Right: the fixed version I came up with in Photoshop.

NOTE: Sorry about the “Test” post that made its way into my RSS feed yesterday.

It happens to all of us. Or maybe just me. Er, anyway–We take a neat photo, and when we get around to editing the sucker, the colors are kind of…”blah.” Boring. Flat. Whatever. You can fix this in post by shooting in RAW, which I plan on doing now that I have a new external hard drive and lots of space.

But, if shot in JPEG, like I did for the above photo, the colors in the photo are set. What can you do?

Fix your photo’s colors in Photoshop. See what I did after the break.

Taking Photos of Sunsets

Sunset!

While I was camping in Caseville last month, I decided to take a stab at snapping photos of the sunset. I know the world ain’t hurting for more photos of sunsets on the Great Lakes, but it was something I had to try at least once.

The beach at Sleeper State Park in Caseville is very lovely, and is a great spot for photos. Sadly, I didn’t have totally clear nights every time I shot, but I made due. I had never shot photos of a sunset before, so I had to learn as I went–and fast.

More photos after the break.
