The Market

I’m not sure about this one. It looks as though this image has gone all HDR but, in fact, is has received a strong dose (overdose?) of RAW processing.

The Printing Press (not just any printing press).

Not just any printing press. This press was used by the Dutch Resistance during World War 2 to print leaflets. More than 20,000 Dutch people were arrested because of their work with the Dutch Resistance. 2,000 Resistance workers were executed. Many Resistance workers were sent to concentration camps. So many brave people.

The Retro Girl

I whacked this image with a lot of retro effects in Photoshop. Such an attractive young lady! The new texture slider in Adobe Camera RAW certainly helps in the retro department.

The new Adobe Camera RAW Texture Slider – The Shopping Centre

This time something a little different when I am using the new Texture Slider in Adobe Camera RAW. I like using the new texture slider together with the dehaze slider when taking my images into monochrome. You can have a lot of fun with this new slider! Great if you want to give your images a little bit of zizz!

The Dunes (handle with care)

The sand dunes along Holland’s North Sea coast are protected areas. No walking on or disturbing the sand dunes in many parts of Holland. The Dutch know how to look after and preserve their most wonderful country. The Dutch have miles and miles of wonderfully clean beaches.
