I’ve been spending quite a bit of time lately exploring interesting ways of adjusting old photos I’ve taken. I’m planning to move to a new apartment in the next few months and I decided that I’d like to have a few of my photos printed large and hanging on the walls. This first wave of edits utilizes exposure, contrast, texture and selective focus.
The first photo was taken this past new years in NYC. I think the selective focus lays out a clear path for the eye to follow, while the blur offers a surreal feeling.
On the same trip, we walked through Central Park and I captured this interesting piece. I think the selective focus, and texture give this an intimate feeling. 
This photo is from a Golden Gardens photo safari. Again, selective focus, texture, and contrast teamed to give this an interesting subject. I find in most of these types of photos, the subject is often the people. However, in this case it happens to be a rock and the people are ghostly images in the background. I don’t know why, but I enjoy that aspect.
