Morning Flight

Posted by
Damon Schreiber (Toronto, Canada) on 5 October 2007 in Transportation and Portfolio.

Many thanks to Alfredo J. Martiz J. for offering me some processing technique goodness. I may have put his tips to questionable use, but he is officially un tipo muy simpático.

This photo shows the ride from Halifax to Montréal. Turbulance all the way. But I dig Porter Airlines nonetheless.

I've decided to intersperse my Montréal and Québec photos with current photos so that I don't get too out of sync with modern times. After all, I was only in Halifax for three days (yes, really), and it's taken me over a month to post all the photos from that city that I wanted to. And as much as I like Halifax, I looooove Montréal.

Damon, Stunning tones indeed! Will have to tell you this one is one of the best of the week!

The damp ground and the natural lighting have been beautifully brought about!

@KMF: Ask Alfredo. Just kidding - briefly: I opened the file (jpg in this case) in Adobe Camera RAW CS3, reduced the vibrance, and adjusted the split toning tab so that the highlights were yellow and the shadows blue.

Thanks, KMF!

I used to have to do Montréal to St Johns New Brunswick. Bumpy ride but worth it for the stopover in Montréal. Like the photo.

I really like the lighting in this shot. It's amazing, but you've managed to make an airport look beautiful.

@e.: Amazing indeed. I wasn't sure whether to run this photo as it did seem rather ordinary. But the effect used here did take it up a notch. Thanks, E!

Chris Sullivan from Melbourne, Australia

No, you've put Alfredo's style to good use. Looks fantastic with the muted warm tones coming out of the cooler processing.
