Haunted

52Frames - Week 26 - Flashlight

I started on this challenge in a completely different direction and it just wasn't working.  This idea was discovered by accident when I realized that the onyx mask on my desk is translucent.

Initial processing in Lightroom, canvas adjustments in Photoshop and b/w & selective color in Silver Efex Pro 2.

UnMag Mile - Plate 2

Michigan Avenue
Chicago, IL

Another shot using some new post-processing plugins and process.  This photo also uses Perspective Efex to correct perspective distortion and Analog Efex Pro for a vintage camera effect.

It was hard to believe the lack of auto and foot traffic on Michigan Avenue given that Chicago is in Phase 3 of its reopening and the Lakefront path opened.

Michigan Avenue
Chicago, IL

Trying out some new post-processing plugins and process from today's Nik Collection webinar.  This shot uses Perspective Efex to correct perspective distortion and Analog Efex Pro for a vintage camera effect.

UnMag Mile

The rectilinear forms, along with the pop of red from the Tumi store, seemed Mondrian-like in this view along Michigan Avenue.

The empty Michigan Avenue wasn't looking magnificent today.
