The sun came out in New York City today, and there were definitely hints of springtime in the air.
Dvorak, Op. 96
26Feb10For some reason whenever I ride a train I want to hear Dvorak. Today the train is the LIRR and the Dvorak would be his String Quartet in F Major, Op. 96, “American”.
I’m experimenting with some different treatments of one earlier photo and one new photo using some custom presets in Aperture 3. I agree with Scott Bourne that Aperture 3 is definitely slower than its predecessor in some ways. That said, it’s also true that Aperture 3 could marginalize or eliminate Photoshop from many photographers’ workflows. I have shot little to no HDR recently, so I haven’t launched Photoshop in months. And now that Aperture 3 has a curves brick, I may never need Photoshop again.
I’m on a bit of a 16:9 kick tonight. Can you tell? If you’ve got a preference for any of the photos below, please feel free to share it in the comments.
