Trying to relearn past knowledge

Years ago I knew how to do a lot more 

in photoshop than I remember now.

Recent events have caused me to reload 

my OS to ElCapitan since Sierra

did not work with many of my programs.

In so doing I lost several actions, one of 

which I had gotten from Photoshop CS3 

and Scott Kelby's book 7-Point System

that I used for sharpening images as I would convert

from DNG to JPG files.

I had loaned my book to someone who

gave it away so I went online and found 

an old copy so that I could recreate 

the action. In doing so however I decided 

to go through the lessons again as 

much as possible since the newest Photoshop

is far advanced over the CS3 version.

Below are three images that I have played 

with to try and use LAB in my processing again.

I still need more practice to get what I really want 

but at least it has sparked the desire again.

Final Annex Update Dedication Day 020717

 I was asked to take a picture of the setup for the dedication today.

So while at it I took some with my phone 

but should have done it with my Canon instead

however I have had to reload all of the software for my computer 

so I was stuck with the phone since  I couldn't process my RAW files.

(Today I was actually able to reload photoshop

so I may take these over.)

This is the lobby area displays. Some of them are really 

quite fun. Interactive Displays.

 A view of the court from the media area.

This is on the snd level hall wall. Some of them 

change images, while others are always there.

I guess that was a way to display more of our

talented athletes from years past.

Elder Cook did the dedication.

I did not photograph any of the 

service but did take some of the setup

prior to the service.

Snow is raising but the deer still make their way through

The snow is nearly up to her belly. More is expected tonight.

Under the trees it is obviously less.

This is also under one of the trees but it is 

hard to tell except by the snow.

Fog crystals on a clear day

 The fog left early on Jan 1, 2017 

so I was able to take these images

with plenty of clear sunlight.
