Creative Edit: The Tarantula Trail – Tim Martin
Creative Edit: The Tarantula Trail – Here’s a shot taken from a winding mountain trail in Colima Mexico. A few steps after taking this photo, I almost stepped on a fairly large Tarantula! My camera was set up with a wide angle lens but I still managed to snap an “ok” shot of him/her relaxing on the trail. ( See shot below ). Reminder, Always bring a portrait lens…
Post Processing “The Tarantula Trail” I took three bracketed shots EV (-2, 0, +2) using a tripod. Then I combined the three exposures in Lightroom and Photomatix to make two different HDR images. Next I used Lightroom presets to create multiple versions/samples. Finally, I took all my samples and mixed in Photoshop!
