Went for a day trip up to the Comox valley a couple weeks back, had a nice lunch out at Goose Spit, on the way back to Courtenay we drove by the Comox airfield and stopped to take a few pics of the static display of aircraft near the museum... I like the way this pic of the Mig 25 "Fishbed" came out....it kinda looks a little post-apocolyptical......

cheers,

What filters did you use on that one?

Looks like infrared or something similar?

I started with a regular colour jpeg image, played around with curves, desaturated the image to grayscale, cloned out a few (argh!) powerlines,
then zapped up the contrast a bit....

BTW anyone else here a fan of "Photoshop User TV"?.....Entertaining and informative....and best o' all, it's free on the web! : )

I'm not sure if links work from the forum, but it's here:

Hi all,
Went camping at goldstream near Victoria this past weekend...beautiful area, btw and a very nice provincial campground, although it's starting to get a little pricy at $24.00 a night....
Here's a pic of a waterfall on the Goldstream near the campground...

cheers,
Al

Goldstream is on my 'summer list' this year for sure... every time I drive through, I want to stop SO badly. Nice waterfall shot Yogi.

I am a huge fan of Donnie Hoyle at My Damn Channel... You Suck at Photoshop... I guess it's defunct now but the two minute videos are awesome!

Ha. Awesome picture... and for the record, you can take pictures anywhere you'd like as long as you're on public property.
