The Alley Portrait
Looking across the Alley towards the distant headland of Burleigh Heads at sunset. I was unsure of the crop so I found a portrait one to play with.

I like this one better drec but for the crooked horizon, the colours seem a little better too.
drec replied
Thanks for that. Think I have it straightened now(when it uploads), Flu ridden and can’t see too well. As for colours, I get a shift when I use different browsers. Chrome resembles my monitor more closely than FF does. Might be time to rebalance things again.

Thanks. It seems every time I go out shooting lately I pick up a bug or something. Might need to stay dry for a change.

Cheers. I killed one of my memory cards and my phone is now a constant vibrator. I didn’t really want to buy a new phone but my hands are now tied…..

Thanks for the before and after!! “When I’m a little smarter, I’ll take screen shots off the panels I use to help show what I’m trying to explain” thats the easy bit!! When I’m a bit smarter maybe I’ll be able to process images as well as you can! Haha. Thanks again. :)

The Digital Photography Connection opened my eyes to Photoshop and got me past the basics of levels and curves. New vid-tutorial out each week.

Oh thanks! Ill check it out! I have Lightroom and Photoshop, so I might as well know how to use it :P

I’m building a list of sites I like in the Gold Coast group Forum I’ll continue to add this over time.

Very dramatic. Keep them coming.
drec replied
Thank you. Often overlook this place – either stop 3km(or so) up the road or bypass it and head further south. Might change that.

very stunning shot with excellent exposure!!
love the seawater flow and Brilliant sky~!
drec replied
Cheers. The sky was good for a change. We had so many days of clear blue skies I wanted some clouds to add a little colour.
Jason Asher
Mate that sucks about your gear.. at least your cam & lens were ok.. you get too enthusiastic about those close ups mate, I tell ya! The portrait crop looks great by the way.
drec replied
Cheers. Looking at a cheap housing for my camera – though compared to the professional housing costs($1000 +) I’m a bit sceptical of buying waterproofing for $150 – they say you can go in the surf with it, but.

Yeah it wouldn’t be a bad idea.. all I can think of is to read lots of reviews mate… but yeah such cheap housing sounds pretty sketcky to me.
