Steam and Vintage car rally held at Little Weighton, East Yorkshire. June 2009.
Some very nice classic and vintage car where also there. Day was very over cast so not a pleasant light to shoot in. Got there early to avoid crowds so missed some of the exhibitors.
Edited ligthroom using preset filters. Used center stage preset then punch and contrast.
I have been using photoshop recently to try and add a more vintage feel to the shots I have been doing. Did a search for vintage filters and presets the one I did like was this one:
Flickr: Discussing Vintage Film Effect in Technique
Seems to work better with still life and plants than portraits. Have had a play with the layer opacity to adjust the effect.
Been wanting to get out and get some pictures of skateboarders for some time. Found skate park on ings road in Hull. Two lads where having a go so I asked if I could get a few shots. Think I will return when I have more time.
Finally got chance to upload remaing 365 pictures missed quite a few days over the last few months. Have found the project fun to do. But with working twelve hour shifts find it difficult to get a picture for each day.
Next project is to restart my 52 pieces of me.
