Day 30: Blueberries
Day 30: Composition, Rule of Thirds
So here we are -- the last day! I wanted to go out with a bang, but I used up all my inspiration yesterday. I sure am glad I saved the easiest technique for last! Tonight I had to fall back on my dinner (no, not literally, silly!). I remembered that the dodge tool is my friend, and got rid of the black shadow on the front of the focal blueberry. I know the color isn't quite there, but I did my best adjusting the jpeg. (Not sure why Elements will process the DNGs sometimes, but not others.)

Day 29: The Old Red Courthouse
Day 29: Post-Processing, HDR
I thought I'd do an architecture photo to make up for the one that wasn't architectural enough. Of course, I had to apply another technique to it for it to count, so I did HDR. I'm not at all sure I have the hang of HDR yet, but I do know that the result looks much better than any of the three originals. It would be a whole lot easier with HDR software. ;)
This is the Old Red Courthouse in downtown Dallas, TX. It was finally retired as a courthouse a few years ago, and is now a museum. It's located right down by Dealy Plaza, home of the infamous grassy knoll and 6th floor book depository.
