January 21, 2018


The scene of this picture is of a stone arch bridge on Route 9 in Stoddard, NH and I posted a photo of this previously in October.  I mentioned that the stone in the bridge is 'dry stacked" and that there is no mortar used in the construction of the bridge.  There is much in formation to be found on Goggle regarding this type of bridge.

I was practicing various functions of a post-processing software and this is the result of adventure.  It is an adventure trying to unlock what the software has to offer.  This software is ON1 Photo RAW 2018.  I have five post-processing software that I use and this one is my favorite, for now.

The first photos of the bridge is straight out of the camera; it has not been touched.  The remaining photos have been cropped to present a completely different effect.  To me, it elicits a few things, such as, looking at the photo critically and the color version gives my thoughts completely different to the black and white version.

Noting the black and white copies, the first one is what I did and the second one is from a preset.  Most software have preset, which one can click on and all the processing step are done for you.  This preset is what one would could be envision if Ansel Adams processed the photo.

  1. My father used to do a lot of painting, especially nature and bridges. Maybe I can get him back into it and he can paint this! Gorgeous.
