Photo A Day - 2013

This gallery represents a continuation of the Photo-a-Day challenge completed in 2012. The goal is to continue to publish one photograph shot every day in 2013. There are no set themes, so the subjects will vary widely from day-to-day.

22 December 2013 -- 356/365
Mystic, Connecticut

I went to the Mystic Seaport today for some candid photography along the historic waterfront. This gentleman was on board one of the schooners answering questions about life at sea. His features suggest a lifetime on the ocean, and I couldn't resist taking this profile. If Hemingway ever visited Mystic, this is how I would picture him.

Post processing started with a classic filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, boost black, boost white, contrast, protect highlights, and details. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
