Perspective
Posted by Laurie (Lincoln, United States) on 28 November 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.
I took advantage of a foggy morning and headed out to take some shots at Lincoln's largest and oldest cemetary.

Excellent work. I still haven't figured out how to do just a bit of color in a photo.

@Anna Marie: Thanks Anna Marie! I used Adobe Photoshop for this. Click on the magic wand, then click that on the area you want to keep in color, right click the mose and select "select inverse", then convert to black and white. Depending on what you are doing, you may have to follow this process several times to get it the way you want it. Hope that helps and have fun experimenting!
