Bentley's B-N-L Cafe

Still behind. It may take a few days to catch up. All of the 366 Snaps photos for last June 17 were taken at Bentley's, where we ate breakfast. It's fairly dark in the B-N-L, and I only took 7 photographs. This was not just the best; it's really the only acceptable image. So here it is again, processed differently. A year ago I processed it (in Bibble Pro--now available as Corel Aftershot Pro) according to my then-current practice of imitating Ilford film printed on Kentmere Art De Luxe using the Andrea plugin. Today's version was more directly processed using Bibble's built-in tool set. Both, as usual, were then sharpened in Photoshop Elements. One side effect of the daily photo project was that I learned Bibble's toolset. For much of the year this gain largely showed as increasingly sophisticated use of the product's Andrea plugin, but by the year's end I was mostly using the program's "native" tools. This set is limited--Photoshop Elements is a far more capable program--but for most photographs I've found it adequate. What's more, the program's design makes it nearly impossible for your to destroy the original photo by accidentally overwriting it with a modified version. And Bibble's an excellent product for sorting through a lot of photographs (that's what I originally purchased it for), and for applying the same processing to a group of photos quickly. ========== This photograph is an outtake (well, actually an alternate treatment) from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps . Number of project photos taken: 7 Title of " roll :" Bentley's Other photos taken on 6/17/2012: Joan and I spent much of the day wandering around Sault Ste Marie, where I shot nearly 300 pix. After supper we visited the Tern colony; I took well over a thousand mostly-lousy pix.
