Striped Building
Icehouse
Personally I think content aware is a fantastic feature, but only if it’s used to remove distracting elements (a wire and a telegraph pole that was running through the sign). Other heavy use removes the original too far from what is what. Regardless, I’m looking forward to trying out some new techniques in some other tutorials that I’ve come across. Expect the results here eventually.
Hoover Turrets
Seriously, how clear does that water look in this photo? The shades of blue complement each other perfectly and the Dam’s colour does the same with the opposing rock. I’m also quite proud of the composition of this photo. The Hoover Dam is an extremely impressive man-made sight, you so never miss the chance to see it if in Vegas.
Skyscrapers To The Sky
Sure, everyone takes photos of the fountains, Caesar’s Palace and New York, New York, but this new complex (which I’m sure has been built in the year since I last went to Vegas) is equally impressive. It’s understated, yet in this photo looks magnificent. It was also my first play on Lightroom with exposure brushes (the highlights on the left buildings, reduced, the right buildings, brightened).
Anyway, I’m extremely pleased with how this came out.
