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!

Magical scene!

Interesting trees. I see many faces. Seems like the big tree is moving in on the smaller trees property. The little leaf trees are having a discussion on how to solve this problem. Hope everthing gets solved. Excellent shot. Aloha

mmmmmmh!! The scene seems beautiful but I have trouble seeing any details! The foliage is too bright on my monitor! I'm not sure the choice of B&W was the thing to do here but it's just me! I would like to see this one in color though! ;)

A beautiful stream. I can just hear the water traveling across the rocks.

life's been the same for me, Eric. sorry i haven't been in your gallery...i'll try to catch up these days! this one has an Asian feel to it, and i absolutely LOVE the softness and how you can get so lost in this! fabulous in b/w...reminds me of ink. yeah, color would be pretty but you chose b/w for a reason. i see lots of faces like Errol. i see a meadow...a little clearing...a nice spot to just plop on the ground and read a book. i love how the leaves flow almost like a waterfall. and there's a spot on the left that shows another clearing...makes me wonder what's there. this one is mysterious and enchanting...and very peaceful. really enjoying it! an enchanting capture!!!
