20080802 - Coo-riosity

view map

For the Achromatic August theme.

Processing:
Mostly in-camera again, set to b&w with red-filter & high contrast (+3). Polarising filter on the lens.
The cow's face was a bit too high-contrast though so processed another raw with the contrast dropped and masked the two together in PS.

Also today



Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
1/125s f/7.1 at 17.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
