This is the Metro station at Hollywood & Highland. Looks like something out of "Alien". Will continue the post tomorrow, as we descend into the bowels of LA and take the train.
Example of swerve filter on a picture that was mirrored and part of it mirrored top to bottom. Three layers used and parts of each layer erased to make the composite. Flaming Pear Filter applied in CS. sRGB Color embedded into the file.
This picture goes well with a song I created. Open the link in another browser window, so you can still see the picture. https://soundcloud.com/glen-charles-1/columbus-avenue
(Jerseyville, IL) A member of the Staunton Bulldog track team starts to jump a hurdle at a spring 2011 co-ed track meet at the Snyder sports complex. I was so close to the track I could have reached out and touched her as she jumped.
(Jerseyville, IL) While sitting in Elmer Heafner's barber shop, I watched as three young boys had their hair cut. Their mother makes a monthly trip to the shop with all three of them.
I ran out to my car as Elmer was almost finished on the last boy to get a camera. I estimated the focus, stood up, shot 3 frames and got this image. The boy looked my way as Elmer finished.
A few days later I gave Elmer a print of this image and his response was, "I look old."
(Virginia, IL) A crowd waits at night at the courthouse square in Virginia Illinois at the 2011 annual BBQ to see country music entertainer Marty Stuart and his Superlatives. A storm had just passed that almost destroyed the stage and tents.

an ideal solution with static objects, when you need more wide angle, than you have on the camera or more resolution.<br />

M9 set to manual exposure! don't forget to fix the ISO, I forgot on this one and on close inspection you see some boundaries between the shots.
