The following was my 1st attempt with welding glass but I didn't set the WB so had a long & convoluted play in PSE8 & quite like the result :

Comments/ crit always appreciated...I'm still learning :LOL:

cheers all x
 
Very nice Lynne (y)
And it sounds like you all had a really good time.
Personally I would lose the "spinner" though.
 
:shake:

My spinning/light painting photographs came out pants. All I got was a high ISO (my error) star trail. For my main star trails set, instead of 30 second exposures with 2 second gap, I had it set to 2 second exposure with 30 second gap...:bonk::bonk::bonk:

You did really well, I have to say. The cross is really well done...I can't see any ghosts in it. I commented on the spin in Flickr...grrrr. Light painted tunnel again nice. I thought maybe cropping some dead space on the right :thinking:. Number 4, looks idyllic...wish I was there now...:shake: I prefer the one in Flickr.

All in all, cracking set.

Now, where and when is the next meet...:D
 
Id like to see the colour version of Rutters Lynne, just personal i dont care to much for selective colour,

For me the spinner is part of the images so leave him, wouuld be better to have worth dressed all black, or better still got him to jump through the vortex after the spin and used a burst of flash to capture the jump

It was good to speak to you on the phone, the second time I rung Dawns phone back it went to voicemail, so i left a message with the exact place to stop

Many thanks for the info on the Millenium stone Dave & nice to talk with you...we didn't get there in the end....think it'll be on the list for the next trip though (y) Will remember to take black clothes for the spinners next time...a burst of flash is beyond my skill set at the mo ...yet more things to learn
I didn't set out to SC the Rutters image...the original is a rather tasteful shade of dingy green all over (welding glass & wrong WB) & has no detail visible in the sky at all...rather blown to say the least ....I could get reasonable color detail in the building & ground but the sky refused point blank to be anything other than bright white !
Just kept pressing buttons until the green had virtualy gone then applied one of the preset filters in PSE8 & started to see some cloud type stuff in the sky, few more buttons clicked & there you go .....
Not to everyone's taste but I kinda like the finished thing....I'll doubtless go & play at it again...see if I can rescue it in color...just for you...but don't hold your breath for the result :LOL:

cheers all......gonna start planning the next one now ....
 
What I forgot to say is, I love the composition on Rutters, and I really like the frosty feel to it

Do you use photoshop theres a quick fix for the green cast?
 
Hiya Lynne and folk

Very interesting Dawn (y)
I particularly like #1 from the 2nd set, (it looks like a psychedelic holly wreathe)
