About Photography

I found these oil slicks on a wet sidewalk at the entrance to a parking garage and photographed them with the Sony RX100.  Setting the camera to square format, I took three photos with the intention of creating a triptych of prints later.

I liked the way the colors flowed from one to the other with a sidewalk break centered in the middle image.

This larger version of the center image of the triptych gives a clearer idea of the sidewalk detail.  The color was enhanced later in Photoshop by moving the images into the LAB color profile and working with them there.  Once the color work was completed, the images were finalized by converting them back to the Adobe RBG color profile. LAB is a much more extensive color profile allowing far greater range in the color palette.
