I like it a lot. ; I REALLY like how you worked the frame "behind" Darth Mauls head.

I was liking that too! ; I wish I new how to make a border/frame like that with Elements! ;

Hey Tim, when I was there last month and watched this show for the first (and second) time, they were on the stage the whole time. ; Is it also common to be out in front as well?
 
John, during especially busy times, they'll add a second Jedi master and villain out front to double the capacity.

Three nice shots, Tim.

AUGUST 24, 2011 - Wilderness Lodge

2011-08-24.jpg



A few nights ago, we took the kids to the Wilderness Lodge for the bonfire and movie under the stars as we were feeling a bit "parked out". ; After the kids crashed and burned, my buddy Jeff and I met up for some nighttime photography. ; Here is one of the shots that I snapped that night. ; In addition to the standard "postcard shot", I was also trying to capture something a bit different and not as often seen. ; I then gave it a bit of Topaz Adjust to make the details really pop! ; The Wilderness Lodge really is a fantastic place, teeming with details and landscaping that will keep any travel photographer busy.

Technical Details: ; Canon 1dMk4, Canon 24-105 f/4L, 10 sec, f/8, ISO 400, -1 EV
Post Processing: ; Adobe Photoshop CS5, RAW conversion, HDR Pop using Topaz Adjust & Denoise

Very nice Tim. ; I have only been there at night to take photos once, and was not happy with my results. ; Again, I love the border/frame!
 
Looks great! ; That was fun, I can't wait to go and do it again. ; We should make a habit out of that when you are here, and hit all of the resorts.

I like this a lot. ; You could do this with any of the monorail colors, and make that area outside the small frame the color of the train. ; Could be an interesting project.

The angled frame and the zoom blur in the background makes it unique.

Really like the effect too! ; Make me really want to learn more about post processing! ; Nice one Tim!
