Candy Cane Hearts

Double Heart Candy Canes 500

I think this will be next year’s Christmas card.  I was playing with HDR again.  Real HDR, not HDR-style.  The image didn’t really need HDR, but… eh.  I like how it turned out, though I haven’t printed it, so it may need some adjustments still.

I love the spot healing brush tool in Photoshop, because after several days, the snow I used wasn’t perfectly clean. Also, when you set a candy cane in the snow, it starts bleeding red into the snow.  So, I had to correct that as well.

And here’s another one.

Snow Pictures

As some of you may have heard, it snowed a bit in the last week or so.  I didn’t go out taking many pictures because it was cold and I didn’t want to.  But here are three I did manage to come up with.  The third one’s my favorite.  I was playing with HDR on the last two and I fiddled with the colors a lot for the bike.
