rocks, trees, reflections - Dream Hat Photography - Gerry Daniel

Photos for the Daily Photo Community are in this gallery but I am not shooting every day. So "daily" for this gallery doesn't mean every day. There's not even a loose schedule. There are so many talented photographers in the Daily Photo Community, I just like to keep my foot in the door so I can be tangentially associated with them.

Gerry Daniel > yellow leaves, a colorscape

This image is not enhanced with any special effects. It was color corrected with the curves layer, brightness and contrast adjusted, and sharpened with the unsharp mask. The effect you see is from the shallow dept of field and the lighting due to the position of the sun.

I am always happy to share information on any effects that are used if asked. This photograph was adjusted by nature. This idea started with what I am calling "waterscapes" and I am experimenting with ways to do something along those lines but without water. My working name is "colorscapes" for this area of work for my photographs.

I appreciate the suppport and feedback from the Daily Photo community.

as i have been photographing Turkey Creek Nature Preserve, the flowing water has captured my imagination and I have been working on a body of work that I am calling waterscapes, there is a new gallery for the waterscape images, i invite you to visit and see the photographs that are watercolors created by nature. It is a new gallery and new images will be added as they are processed.

Gerry Daniel > autumn beauty, Turkey Creek Nature Preserve

Waterscapes have captured my imagination as I photograph the natural beauty at Turkey Creek Nature Preserve. No special effects are used with these photographs. They are the result of photographing reflections in the water at various aperture settings and shutter speeds to highlight the texture and color reflected in the water.

Gerry Daniel > autumn watercolor, golden leaves

This photograph is part of a body of work i am developing on waterscapes - a few others are in this gallery.

Plans for the waterscape photographs are under development. More to come on that later.

Gerry Daniel > My photography blog has a post relating to this group of photographs from Turkey Creek Nature Preserve, I invite you to read it (http://bit.ly/4ddLwO and would love for you to subscribe to the blog. The Dream Hat Photography blog is a companion to my photography site.

Some people felt that the photo from yesterday had an off kilter horizon. The fog and the debris in the water on the left side gives it the feeling of a slanted horizon.

Gerry Daniel > morning fog, fall colors

morning fog rolling across the water at Turkey Creek Nature Preserve on a beautiful fall morning, more images from the nature preserve can be found here http://bit.ly/3o3pRk

Gerry Daniel > leaves in the creek

This photograph was made at Turkey Creek Nature Preserve in Alabama. It has been designated as "Forever Wild" by the State of Alabama and will be protected and preserved. It is part of a group of locations across Alabama. Conserving the natural beauty of these locations is important to all of us for now and the future.

Gerry Daniel > leafy path in the woods

This scene reminded me of going home, i spent a lot of time in the woods when i was young and still feel a connection when i am in the woods. You are invited to read my blog entry about this photo here http://bit.ly/4zbyRy.

Thanks for all the support and encouragement.

Gerry Daniel > two drops, the remix

my work flow and processing for the photographs evolves over time, for the most part i don't go back and revisit images that I shot and processed in the past, this photograph is one of the exceptions so i am going to call it a remix
