Grant, glad that you were able to connect.
I think your latest frosty window photo may be my favorite.
Oh, those puppies grow up so fast. Looks like that one wants to be brushed. Good doggie.

Thank you Lorell,
Another pro shooter and friend of mine introduced me to Photo Matrix Pro.I seldom use it because I like to be in the driver seat. Although software makes the process less time consuming it seldom does what I want it to.

Before HDR processing, I would process lighter and darker versions. Then layer and erase parts to achieve the more detailed look I was after. By following subtle existing patterns I could put emphasis on and bring out those patters in a more painterly fashion. The colour I achieve in the Frost also involves manipulating the curves in one layer and erasing parts away to show detail from another layered image.

However I use a similar approach in a more natural landscape. I know I shared this on WC.
