Started with infrared and then painted. You can actually buy a limited edition print for $45 during the labor day weekend. This sort of thing is a long way from the street shooting I still do once in a while, but it is very enjoyable. If you haven’t tried it – you should. Just take any black and white negative – scanned – and then try and imagine what colors should be used and how they fit (hopefully) together. It can be done pretty quickly with NIK software, and at some point I should do a write up of that. But everyone has Photoshop, and that just means a lot of masking.
Since New York is basically all rectangles, this is very easy to mask in Photoshop, though you have to be careful with those trees.
Hey Dave, I just want to let you know that I would love to read about coloring in Nick software. It may be something I could use to boost my drawings.
Just a thought,
thanks
