After spending the morning at a clients, I was able to go out photographing in the afternoon, and I let the GPS lead the way!
I was able to visit:
with a quick stop at St. Matthew’s Church after seeing “it” from the road.

After I finally got to the bridge, it started to rain, so I was confined to shooting inside the bridge.
Tried to scout for future shoots, and did see several, but the weeds are so over grown at this point, it is not worth the effort.

Lightroom 3 has been out for about a month now, after being having many of it core components rewritten from the ground up over the past two years, and it shows.
In general, the application is quicker at most common tasks, and can greatly hence most images that it comes in contact with.
Already, I have been able to breath new life in several images because of the enhanced noise reduction algorithms, on images that were shoot with a high ISO speed!
Another area that I have been really taken advantage of, is the built in Publishing Service for Flickr.
In the previous version, one would have to export the desired files, and then bring them into Flickr.
With LR3, after you have connected to Flickr, you just export!
There is no need to create an additional set of files, which saves time and disk space!
Over the course of the long weekend, I have been able to publish many new images to Flickr with great easy, and I invite you to take a look at my Photostream!
There are a ton of new features that have been added or enhanced, and I plan on using and commenting in the future, so stay tuned!
Back in September of 2009, I joined Flickr.com, and started to upload some of my photographic work.
At first, visits to my “Photostream” were slow as I began to figure things out, but with some encouragement of Friends, I began to add more images.
Then, today, after having spent the afternoon with Family down at the Downingtown Good Neighbor Day, I decided to take my Flickr account to the next level.
So here begins the next adventure of my digital life!
This was an image of a mother of two boys.
The younger brother contacted me, and asked me to restore this original studio photography of this mother, from the 1920s.
It was to be a 75th Birthday present for his older brother.
After correcting all the scratches, I added a sepia tint to the background.
If you are interesting in getting your own photos restored, please feel free to contact me for a free consultation and quote.
