Forrest Lake in Methuen was frozen the last time I was there. It’s still pretty cold out, but the temps have been hitting the 50’s on most days. Here’s looking forward to the next time I visit Forrest Lake when there won’t be any ice to be found anywhere.
Someday I will get a good long exposure shot of a spinning merry go round. This day was not that day.
As for the before and after Lightroom, I think the colors are okay but over all I over did it… again.
Before:
After:
Forgive me. It’s a lazy Sunday at home and I am having fun being a nerd with film photos.
Here’s another before and after messing with Lightroom on my iPhone post. This time it’s the Spicket Falls Dam in Methuen, MA. Is the edited in Lightroom version better than the non-edited in Lightroom version?
This is a scan of one of my crappy pictures. The only edits are the auto setting in Apple Photos.
This is the same image after I screwed around with it in Lightroom on my iPhone.
I over did it, right? Like, big time?
I really want to shoot some film today. I might be taking a drive into Cambridge, and if I do and if the daylight is okay, I might take a short stroll through Harvard Square and I might bring Dad’s Pentax K1000 and a roll of film or two with me and see what happens. No promises though. It’s still kinda cold out there. We’ll see.
Mickey’s first show of the day? Probably his second, but close enough.
I forgot to check something when I took this. I can’t remember exactly, but some setting was off and the light meter wasn’t at a good spot and I ended up a little underexposed… and I kinda like it.
I think I was trying to trigger the light meter and I bumped the shutter button too hard. I think that was what happened.
As soon as the weather starts clearing up, I’ll start shooting downtown again. I promise.
