As I Walk By

First post of the year!!! (^_^) … and the only one for the last 3 months… (T~T)…

Anyway…

This shot was taken last… uhm… sometime ago. It’s a shot of the sidewalk of one of the side of Ayala Triangle, the side facing Paseo de Roxas. Took it from a low vantage point with the sensor almost perpendicular to the ground (thus the lens was parallel to the ground). My first mistake was I took the shot with only the JPEG and no RAW and the second was that I set the camera to take it already in B/W format. Yeah, I know. Stupid. Also there’s a billion and one other things wrong with it but let’s not get into that. Hurts my pride you see. As for the PP, since I could do very little to it (mostly because I really don’t know how to PP other than a little tweak here and there), the main edits are mostly contrast and resizing.

I have found that one reason why I post so few and far in between is because I dread having to look for the EXIF data of the photo (though I have the tools to do so). That and I’m just lazy. Whenever I have the drive to post a photo, I get deterred when I think I have to look for the original photo and have to extract the original EXIF. Well, I realize something. Since I post processed heavily anyway and my posted photos barely look like what the original photo, I decided I would forgo that particular bit of (rather useless at this point) information. So, from now on it’s just going to be a little info on the photo from whatever I can remember when I took it and maybe the techniques (if there are any) that I applied to the photo, from taking it to processing it. And of course the photo.
