Dry Autumn River Bed 1 Print

My method may be simplistic compared to other artists, but I shoot a wide spectrum of imagery, literally whatever catches my eye, often while I'm engaged doing things other than just shooting photos. My iPhone 12 Pro has really helped me to capture things that I would have otherwise missed. Here, I was attending an outdoor October Wedding for my granddaughter, held in a large open park area that included this scene, caught while crossing a small bridge in this wooded area. Sometimes my photos are good enough, imho, to stand on their own, but often they need a little something extra, as with this image. I was able to turn a rather bland autumnal woods scene into something I really like, through blending, compositing, and other computer manipulations in this digital age. Much of my work is now drifting away from straight photography and into more new media, where I use my original photographs and then create something artistically pleasing through various digital applications and techniques.
