Eastern States Penn Barber Chair Rework

If you search the Internet for Eastern States Penitentiary (ESP) images you find hundreds of images of the ESP’s barbers chair. I made to trips down to ESP to shoot photographs there back in 2010, here is the two chairs you will find at ESP. The red chair is in the area that you go during normal visitor pass and the other chair is in a remote area only available to groups paying for special access for photo sessions.

These photos I when back and did a complete High Dynamic Range (HDR) rework. The first image I did the HDR work using NIK Software’s HDR Efex Pro. Then using NIK Software Color Efex Pro 3 I applied Tonal Contrast, Glamour Glow and Darken Lighten Center filters. The second photo was the same process but after I applied the three Color Efex Pro 3 filters I then processed image thru NIK Software Silver Efex Pro 2 to produce a B&W image.

Tiger Lilly's





The Tiger Lilly's are starting to bloom here in Upstate New York and here are a few images I took today and did them as B&W photos. Two of them are multiple exposures, one is two exposures and the other is a five exposure image. Also included is a B&W image of young wild grapes I found growing along the road.

Ansel Adams Sky



Here in the Northeast we do know that often get what I call Ansel Adams Sky's, Blue sky with big puffy white clouds. The other week we had the right conditions and these are a couple of images I took then converted to B&W to create a digital Ansel Adams type image.
