| Dawn, James Island Connector, Charleston, SC © Doug Hickok The James Island Connector is a bridge that links Charleston with one of the neighboring sea islands. This image was made on slide film a few years back, at a time when I was push processing chromes one stop for added punch. Photo buyers in Charleston seem to like my images for their strong hues, so I often strive for that pop of color. A draw back of push processing is added grain in the image, as you can see in this misty twilight scene along the Ashley River. More importantly... Happy 21st Birthday Adam Cade Gabriel ! ! |

The graphic composition here is quite impressive. The hue adds a sense of surrealism.

ReplyDeletenothing like having your breath taken away first thing in the morning.
ReplyDeletehappy birthday, adam.
I really like it! I think the added grain works as well at least in this image. Really nice Doug.
ReplyDeleteIt's a mystical look.
ReplyDeleteInteresting look with the punchy colors. Sometimes I feel we spend too much time worrying about noise (grainyness) in our pics. I think it adds a bit of character.
ReplyDeletereally creative use of existing elements to frame this scene.. nice work! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is such a sense of the artistic eye in this most painterly of frames, Doug. I can see this as a large canvas on the wall, hues that pop, detai;s that capture the essence of that structure. It's such a visually strong and dynamic image.
ReplyDeleteYour composition is always very creative, I like how you framed it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Adam! ;-)
In technical terms, it is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteIt seems unreal! It's a great effect, Doug!
ReplyDeleteХорошее фото! Мне нравится эта обработка. Я люблю эти цвета!
ReplyDeleteGotta love your processing man. Honestly, at first sight it seemed like a scen from Mario! At second sight, the real beauty came up...
ReplyDeleteI love the colors here! Very cool.
ReplyDeleteDoes a little grain really matter? It's a phenomena that's been used to great effect since the early days of photography. And it works beautifully here..
ReplyDeleteI've actually always been a fan of grain and I think it works well here. The colors are extraordinary.
ReplyDeletegreat geometric shot, and the green spot really makes the composition
ReplyDeleteLove the image Doug and the way you have processed it. Great.
ReplyDeleteGENIAL!! Me encanta el magenta!!
ReplyDeleteUn artístico encuadre, color y procesado...una artística fotografía, en definitiva...muy buena!!!
ReplyDeleteSaludos!!! ;)
This is spectacular to me! Wonderful Light again - and a great construction. I follow you!
ReplyDeleteintriguing technical details here, and a very pleasing result! i'd say the vivid colors easily offset the grainy structure! in fact, the grain adds to the charm of this very pink image! and i like the pov very much, as if you had been looking out of a window!
ReplyDeleteJust wonderful framing and color--great shot Doug! I kind of like the grain from a push and boy, you're right, the color pops!
ReplyDeletemarvelous colors. superb lines
ReplyDeletewow, stunning.
