Photo a Day - 2014

This gallery represents a continuation of the Photo-a-Day challenge started in 2012 and continued through 2013. The goal is to continue to publish one photograph shot every day in 2014. There are no set themes, so the subjects will vary widely from day-to-day, although there will be a very strong emphasis on black and white as well as street photography in the third year of this project.

I was in the mood for a night photo, so instead of going out at lunch today, I waiting until after dinner and went to Roger Williams Park. I was hoping the area around the bandstand would be illuminated, but apparently that's only the case in the summer. About the only part of the park that had any lighting at all was here at the carousel. Now that we've set the clocks back, though, more nighttime shots may be in order.

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