I’m now wondering if there’s some section of local council that has an annual budget to keep putting benches in public gardens just to keep you happy (it’s either that theory or you catty one around with you and place it in the shot each time – but that seems like too much like hard work).
Lovely tones which drag and splatter colour out superbly whilst remaining so soft and smooth.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Maybe I have a SAW variety of bench Stuart (simply add water?!!)—when you start looking it is amazing the number of places you find them lurking! Most people like to rest their legs from time to time it seems. Thanks for the kind words my friend.

SharonD
Lovely photo Rosalie. I love the colours you put in these.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thanks Sharon – the colours were enhanced by the initial HDR so I ran with it this time to see how it would go.
GailD
Another Rosalie bench. There must be one around every corner.
Beautiful comp & processing. The colours are so vibrant.
I notice you said it was a HDR. Did you put it in that group.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thanks Gail – I haven’t joined the HDR Group – didn’t think I was up to that standard yet but I guess I have to start sometime!!
GailD
Go for it. You’re there.

What a fantastic presentation Rosalie. I have no idea what you have done to this shot, but it is so beautiful! The colors are so vibrant and at the same time mellow and they blend together so very well. Great stuff!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Sue firstly it is an HDR (3 copies of one jpeg processed in Photomatix), then some fiddle with curves in CS3 – I did try to desaturate but it looked dreadful so Ieft the colours vibrant! Thanks for the kind words!!
Prasad

Gorgeous shot, my friend. The lighting is exquisite, and the colour tone is very pleasing. I don’t know what you do to the greens, but they sure are wonderful.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Hey Keld, as I mentioned to Sue, firstly it is an HDR (just using one jpeg x 3 processed in Photomatix), then some fiddle with curves in CS3 – I did try to desaturate but it looked dreadful so Ieft the colours vibrant! I value your opinion – thank you my friend!

I love the HDR shots. So many folks here at RB do that. I did not recognize it in your bench photo. It certainly is gorgeous. I don’t think I have the experience or the patience for HDR yet. I am still floundering around trying to develop a routine editing method for CS3. I have used all the steps that you taught me. Soon I will have to ask you for more. LOL.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Any time, Sue!
