[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 197197, member: 9240"] Met a friend for breakfast this morning and decided that the sky was too interesting not to go out and shoot before getting back to work. It's been a while since I did that - it felt good. I was hunting for subjects for this month's "Weathered" theme and remembered this old dairy a couple miles away. We had torrents of rain yesterday, so getting close enough to where I wanted to shoot would have been disastrous as I was well underdressed for mud. But I did get this one shot. It's a bit too cluttered and unfocused, but I sort of like it anyway. Then I asked myself, "What would it look like in B&W?" So, off to Silver Efex Pro I went. I liked it better, so I kept playing. I eventually went to the colored filter sliders and when I added green filters it popped. I played with the amount of filtering and the hue and wound up with this very eerie Infrared effect that I really like - a lot more than the original. Not a great photo, but a good example of what you can do with one that you're not necessarily crazy about. So here you have it... [B][I]Weather[/I][/B]...
