A Softer Liv
Friday, January 29th, 2016
On that last shoot with the amazingly wonderful Liv Sage I pulled out my old single-element soft focus lens and played around with it for a while. It makes nice soft photos in a way that really can’t be duplicated in software. Of course, DxO had no idea what to do with these files, so I […]
Liv and a New Workflow
Monday, January 25th, 2016
I recently did a new shoot with the lovely and wonderful Liv Sage. Since I’ve been experimenting with alternatives to Adobe Photoshop for my editing, I decided to use different software for processing this new shoot. The starting point for my new workflow is DxO Optics Pro. It does the file conversion from the original […]

Another Winner
Friday, January 8th, 2016
The winners of the French PHOTO magazine annual contest have just been announced on their website. Once again I’m very pleased to find out that one of my photos has won. They say this is the largest photo contest in the world and certainly there are many thousands of excellent entries, so it’s quite an […]
More Liv in the New Year
Friday, January 1st, 2016
To get the new year off to a great start here are some new photos of Liv Sage from a shoot late last year. For the photo folk seeing this, these are my second attempt to edit files using DxO Optics Pro. I bought it on sale a couple days ago to see if it […]
