It’s now the olive picking time in this part of Italy and the locals are all hard at work. Here’s an image I took out of my office window.
Taken on the D3 with 200m f2.8 lens and worked on in Lightroom and photoshop.
The weather here is still warm during the day but the nights have dropped cooler now. Still much better the England though!
It’s a shame the image size has to be reduced for here as this image is really quite stunning at full size.
I’ve also been reworking some images taken about 4 years ago and a Nikon D1X using Lightroom2. Here’s one making full use of negative clarity and the retouching brush – nice effect, I think
Again, shame this is only small but I think you should get the idea.
Why no posts at the moment?
Because I’m back in the UK for a 6 week contract. I drove from Oliveto Citra to Rotterdam and then caught the over night ferry to Hull. 1500 miles in 2 days is a bit of a long drive and I think I’ll take 2 overnights to go back starting on the 27th December. Promise I will post more once I’m back in Italy – oh how I’m missing it……
