![Arashiyama River Banks by arcreyes [-ratamahatta-] on Flickr.Via Flickr:
After our short mystical trip to the Bamboo Forest, we headed out for the Oi River of Arashiyama. It was not as colorful yet as expected but still I had to take the shot for documentation purposes.
It was so cloudy, I really had a hard time fixing this photo. Adding a little brightness washes up the photo easily. And adding contrast brings most of the detail back to backs. I did local adjustments both in Lightroom and Photoshop to make the photo a little acceptable.
If interested, I have my general workflow on how to create HDR images. Do check it outarcreyes.blogspot.com/2010/12/hdr-workflow.html](http://25.media.tumblr.com/2afba98c213eec883a10bcebf66aa839/tumblr_mkolibVvlO1qzrwuio1_250.jpg)
![Something Wicked by aliceisidore on Flickr.Via Flickr:
I wish the details could be better seen on this… I do recommend enlarging it on black
This is another shot from the Flickr Gathering earlier this week. (See photos from the group that put the day together, here!)
I’d been contemplating dark[er] ideas after being sick and thus watching lots of scary TV.
There’s so much detail in this, and I feel it’s a bit of a “glass half full, glass half empty” scenario. Is she projecting something wicked outward? Or is she accepting her fate as the looming wilderness closes in? What do you see? Is that the manifestation of what we perceive in our own lives?Facebook / Tumblr](http://25.media.tumblr.com/cef12936de1033b9bfaab95c95058543/tumblr_mhca4fkkmR1qzrwuio1_250.jpg)
