| Macro Bokeh: Colorful Fungi |
Colorful Fungi. Bannack, MT. 5/25/11'. 12:35pm. ƒ/7.1; 1/2000; -2. Canon Powershot SD500.
I thought the colorful fungi would be an interesting and original object to capture. I had some natural bokeh to the photo but added a little more and I'm not sure if I over did it or if there is a natural blend from the detail to the background bokeh. But I really love the detail in the wood and in the fungi or moss. I did use saturation, vibrance, gaussian blur, and a mask.

Bannister: Sepia. Bannack, MT. 5/25/11'. 12:52pm. ƒ/2.8; 1/200; -2. Canon Powershot SD500.
I had so many versions of this shot. One in color, one with just a vignette, and this one in sepia w/ a vignette. It really gives it that old antique feeling. I added a vignette to add more dark contrast to the highlights in the photo on the stairs and bannister. I love the composition of this photo. When you step back and squint, it almost looks like a musical note or maybe I'm just hallucinating. I don't know. haha.

Door Handle. Bannack, MT. 5/25/11'. 12:50pm. ƒ/2.8; 1/500; -2. Canon Powershot SD500.
Nothing that original but I liked the texture on the door and decided to take a photo of the door handle along with it. Kind of a plain object but I like the contrast of detail in the handle with the bokeh in the background.

I added that same texture photo that I used for the doorknob in the Macro Abstract post. That's why you see what seems to be shadows of tree branches on front of the hotel as if there was full moon out. Plus adding the light in the window on the top adds more mysteriousness to the photo and hotel since it is...... haunted! Just joking.

Same photo but in color and used vignette, saturation, vibrance, and levels. I also used spot brushing to lighten parts of the clouds in sky. I really liked this photo. I never imagined it would turn out like this. I like the angle I took of it with the wagon wheel in front. It really gives it that old western look. I also like the stormy sky. It really gives a nice contrast of colors in the photo.
I really like your perspective in these shots! I don't think i would have been able to guess that was a door handle right off, if you hadn't titled it. The haunted house hotel turned out very cool!! It looks creepy. Way to get creative with the staircase as well. The editing of all these pictures is very fitting for the subjects in the image!
