SilverEfex Pro Experiment

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

Was looking thru some old pictures tonight and happened across some of my old lighthouse pictures.  I had the thought of…..”I wonder what that would looking in Black and White?”.  So off I went with several images into SilverEfex Pro 3.0.  Of all the Nix Software applications this is one of my favorites.   One of the built in presets is “Cyanotype”.  Cyanotype was a popular process in the 20th century engineering world (Blueprints).  Since this particular image was taken on a very cold February evening, I thought the blue cast gave the picture a cold feel.  ENJOY!
