The Vulcan

Very striking.

Did the figure sitting on the beach have to be posed, or was it just a bonus?

What kind of filter did you have on?

or is it electronic processing.

Perhaps we need a thread on using filters and their effects,

it seems to be a lost art. :o

The scene is completely authentic.

I was dining at a beach front restaurant and watching the clouds gather when the figure appeared. Lucky I guess.

The image is a Lightroom/Photoshop colour and contrast manipulation. I have a selection of pre-sets that I play with.

Here's the original washed out slide (15 years poor storage) and the subsequent restoration.

The submitted image is a play on saturation/colours/curves and a bit of toning.

I don't use filters anymore - Photoshop has pretty much made them redundant. I'll employ an ND or Polariser sometime but usually to adjust the exposure rather than create an effect.

I have to agree with "Who, me ?" the original one is the best.
