Well it’s been a while since I posted.   It’s also been a while since I was out shooting.  Hopefully I can make up for it with some portraits from the Monday night CPS photo shoot down at Voinovich Park.  From what I have heard everyone had a good time.  So here are some of the shots I took.

Here are a few images I shot at last weekend’s CPS/Blackwatch Studio open shoot.  It was a lot of fun.  Shooting helps get my mind off things for a little while so it’s like a mini vacation when I’m making photographs.  This was also true when I was doing my flight training.  It didn’t matter how bad a day I had when I got into that plane and fired up the engine nothing else mattered.  There was one task: operate the machine to the best of my abilities.  Sure photography doesn’t involve a very sudden stop from thousands of feet if I mess something up but in order to produce the kinds of images that I want requires focus.  But check out the images and let me know what you think.

As a follow up to the Intro to Lightroom presentation that I did for the Cleveland Photographic Society.  There was a question about where I got the retouching presets for the brush tool.  The ones that I showed in the presentation where found on Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Killer Tips.  This website also shows you how to install these.

If I get any other questions I will update this post with the answers.
