I’m pleased to announce that I have been invited by Nik Software to be part of Team Nik – a select group of pro photographers that not only use their products but LOVE them – and teach others how to use the programs. Thanks, NIK! This image was originally created in color, then minimally processed in Lightroom. I then took it into Silver Efex Pro, converted to black and white, then in Photoshop added my own take on the Sepia Look, then took it back to Nik Color Efex Pro to add the vignette for that ‘old photo’ look. I don’t get as much time as I’d like to play like this during my busy workshop/tour season, but I sure have fun when I do!
