Downtime: Rediscover Old Photos
Last night I was a bit bored after climbing and decided to go back through my older photos and see if I could bring any of them to life. As your photo and editing skills improve, it’s nice to go back and find magic in photos that were lacking before.
I discovered a few photos that I had just overlooked and re-edited some photos that I thought had more potential than they were showing. One of my favorites was “The Tourist.” Originally, I had overlooked this photo because I had a silhouette of the same subject and the focus wasn’t great, but after a bit of tweaking and adding some texture, I came up with something I was pretty satisfied with and I think it makes for an interesting composition.
Here is the progression.
- The Original Photo
- After quite a few image adjustments and filters.
- After applying texture and a few slight tweaks.
For more rediscovered photos or re-edits check out my set on Flickr.
