September Sunsets in California

10/16/2019

Late September, around the time I went to Sugar Pine Reservoir to take a bunch of photos (here are part 1 and part 2 if you missed them), I spent a few evenings taking my camera and tripod out to capture some sunset photos.

September Adventures: Sugar Pine Reservoir Part 2

10/10/2019

0 Comments

 
Last week I shared Part 1 of my adventures in Sugar Pine Reservoir, where I visited the area in late September with my husband and mother-in-law. It's a gorgeous area to spend the day wandering around and soaking in the beauty of nature.

I had heard stories from my husband and his family about how beautiful and peaceful the area was, but had yet the chance in any of my travels to visit the space.

This all changed last month. And I think it's safe to say it's now one of my favourite places in California. I want to back!

​Let's get to the photographs, shall we?

September Adventures: Sugar Pine Reservoir Part 1

10/5/2019

In late September, my husband, mother-in-law and I traveled to Sugar Pine Reservoir, located in Northern California, to spend the day wandering around. I had heard stories from my husband and his family about how beautiful and peaceful the area was, but had not yet had the chance to visit.

This was all about to change.

In preparation, I purchased a new SD Card for my camera, a nearly-ten-year-old Canon EOS REBEL T3. In previous years, I have shied away from shooting photographs in RAW. My excuse was that SD Cards were expensive and I would rather take more photos and experiment, rather than have to stop early and miss something because I didn't have card space.

These days, SD Cards don't really cost all that much and I have no excuse not to ensure I have ample room for the photos I need to take. I never had any excuse, to be honest.

And after editing RAW photos in
Adobe Lightroom Classic recently, I don't think I will ever go back to using only Adobe Photoshop. For photo editing, if I don't need to edit people out of them or work on a design, I can see myself using Lightroom for most retouching instead. It's amazing for organization and batch editing. I love it!

Editing Landscape Photography

10/1/2019

This post is based on a similar post I created for Tali Gibson Designs LLC's company Portfolio. It was a post that turned out far more detailed than originally intended, and I can see it being relevant here as well. It gives a fair amount of insight into how I photograph and edit photos, as well as what programs I use to do my work.

​There are different ways to edit a photo based on how the photo was taken and the intention behind the editing. In the case of landscape photography, there is more leeway in how far to push an image, compared to the subtlety required for portrait retouching.
