I haven&#8217;t seen a lot of people since COVID began, so it was quite refreshing to see some old (and new) faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/14-1-695x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/14-1-695x1024.jpg 695w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/14-1-204x300.jpg 204w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/14-1-768x1131.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I sent this off to get printed, and it looked amazing when I got the print back. That was the first time I saw my pictures as prints (albeit a print from a digital scan). I don&#8217;t have any equipment or means to photographically (or electronically for that matter) print. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"692\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16-1024x692.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/16-768x519.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of pictures had flash blowout where closer areas are much brighter than they should be. I tamed this down by adjusting exposure in Photoshop and creating either linear or circular gradients to blend the adjustment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"692\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/20-2-692x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-369\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/20-2-692x1024.jpg 692w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/20-2-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/20-2-768x1136.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 692px) 100vw, 692px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This one was one where the blow out was so bad, you couldn&#8217;t see any details on the her face. To correct this I added an adjustment layer and mask and used a circular gradient to define where I wanted to tone down the brightness. A fortunate byproduct of this is the floor and areas immediately around the face are much darker. I like this aesthetic, as it draws attention to the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the things I do in Photoshop would have a direct analog to photographic prints. If I were to do that same adjustment in the dark room, I would probably cut a burning mask and expose the middle of the picture longer than the rest, moving the mask for a smooth transition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"692\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/21-1024x692.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/21-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/21-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/21-768x519.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"666\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/23-2-1024x666.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/23-2-1024x666.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/23-2-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cfabz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/23-2-768x500.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These pictures are from the same roll as the previous post.
