morturn Posted March 6, 2008 Report Posted March 6, 2008 I have just put together this short slideshow following a couple of trips to the continent.I wanted to keep it as short as possible, with just simple transitions.You thoughts and comment would be most welcomeLegacy - Aux Mort Quote
mbskels Posted March 6, 2008 Report Posted March 6, 2008 Really enjoyed viewing your show. Images are superb with very thoughtful use of the light. Would be interested to know if they are digitally "toned" or perhaps scans of darkroom prints? Also thought the av presentation was excellent - refreshingly simple. Less is certainly more in this case.Malcolm Quote
morturn Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Posted March 6, 2008 Would be interested to know if they are digitally "toned" or perhaps scans of darkroom prints?Hi MalcolmYes the images are all digitally toned in Photoshop and taken on a Canon EOS 5D.I create a new adjustment layer for channels to convert to mono (100% on the red channel), and then create another adjustment layer for Hue and Saturation (hue 45 saturation 20)Then crop to 1024x768 and apply the noise filter Quote
neil Posted March 6, 2008 Report Posted March 6, 2008 Well that was great ! Just my sort of show, I hope to save it and watch many times.Can't wait to show it to my wife as I know she will love it.Off to your website to look for more.ThanksAll the BestNeil Quote

Not used that method for toning before - must give it a try. The applied noise gives them a real darkroom feel. Quote
morturn Posted March 6, 2008 Author Report Posted March 6, 2008 Interesting approach. Not used that method for toning before - must give it a try. The applied noise gives them a real darkroom feel.The beauty of using adjustment layers is so you can always go back to them and make further adjustments if required. I prefer to do mono like this because you can vary each channel to get the best image detail and mono effect. Quote
jfa Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Very enjoyable and a nice technique, thanks Morturn. Quote
mhwarner Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Nicely done! The colors and the transition techniques used compliment the photographs. I am also amazed at the amount of work that went into the actual sculptures. Who would have thought that such an elegant show could be created from an ancient cemetery! Thank you for sharing this. I wonder if you would be kind enough to tell us which transition and the settings you used to display the initial slide with the gradually appearing lines. Thanks! Quote
morturn Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Posted March 9, 2008 Hi MaryThanks for your comments.The transition on the first slide is "hour Hand clock wise" witha duration of about 3.5 seconds. hope this helps if not please get back to me Quote
