"Room With A View"
Whilst staying with friends in Painswick, Gloucestershire, in England, I was asked to photograph some of the rooms for them as reminders of this lovely home, as they were due to be moving back to America soon. I decided to put a couple of the rooms here in my RB portfolio. This is shot is of our friends’ daughter’s room who is away at school. Our daughter stayed in her room whilst visiting for a few days. This is the second photo of this room I have put up. I love the view from this room, looking across the valley and countryside. I managed to get the bed in the mirror’s reflection. There is just something so romantic about a room with such a beautiful view, like something that might be portrayed in a period drama.
This is a HDR image combining 7 bracketed shots using Photomatix Pro for Macs. Slight adjustments in lighting and tone were done using the enhanced details tool. I have left the image with its warm lighting unadjusted. As HDR images go, this is “As Is.”
