Yes it is I, ebsmooth, undercover of course... I scrapped the old gallery due to inconsistencies in quality and format. I wanted a more presentable, professional looking gallery. I submit the EricSBauer gallery for your viewing pleasure. BIOWith my camera I bring to you the gritty and sometimes dark side of life, the everyday things that are often overlooked. My mission is to find echoes of the past and give them a voice in the now, to find the beauty in all things "ugly".
Tools used:
Nikon D70 18-70mm
Nikon Capture 4: all I use this for is the handling of the RAW files. It can be done in
Photoshop CS but there is more options in Capture. This step consists of exposure comp and white balance adjustments where needed.
Photoshop CS: all files are converted to Lab Color to unsharp mask the light channel then its back to RGB for conversion to black and white. For this step I choose a channel mixer adjustment layer for the simple fact that I can make changes to the .PSD file if needed or if I wish to see the image in color. After all that I add a border, nothing fancy or elaborate, just a simple white border to emulate what the prints will look like.
The above steps are the same for every image I do post work on. The settings I use vary from photo to photo and always to suit my personal taste.
Prints of all my work are available for sale. If interested just drop me a line and arangements can be made.
And that's my story, what my photos and I are all about.
Thank you for your visit, it's very much appreciated!

Well, we Macians see things with different eyes. This is true. AND, we love jumps, especially when they are creative. Excellent stuff again Eric.

Great shot :) I love seeing what you have. Oh, and congrats on Lwitg for your Benches and Fog image~! Another super piece of artwork.

Cool stuff. If you haven't already, may I suggest zooming in on the steel girders and finding and interesting combo of form and line in them alone? I see some neat things happening there, but am less wowed by the rest of the scene.

I saw what you were talking about Kort and did some additional cropping; I kind of like this version better. The brush in the foreground had to stay, without it the picture looked too off balance. Thanks for the suggestion.

Wonderful shot!

I like the balance you've achieved with this crop. The light becomes just as important as the form, sweeping bright to dim across the bridge. I wouldn't have put a lot of importance on the brush if you hadn't mentioned it, but I can see how sterile this might be without it. Great shot!

Nice capture and lighting. Aloha

This is a marvelous piece of work. I was immediately struck by the movement of the image and the brush in the foreground is what triggered it; I saw it as an important reflection of the diagonal-opposite darkness at the upper-right corner of the screen...it sort of "pinched" my perception along the bridge in an interesting and fun way...and then, as is typical of me, I started looking at the rivets. VERY nice work!
