Filtered Sunlight - 1/2

Posted by Bishop (Houston, United States) on 6 November 2009 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

A couple of old pics from Houston.

A Note on the pics: This was actually a cloudy day with gray sky over Houston. I used the magic of PS to create the sunshine and a general feeling of brightness in the pic. I must confess I was quite amazed by the change and very pleased with the effect. :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

My apologies for not being able to respond individually to all comments - the number of comments have increased lately (very happy about that!). Please be assured, though, that each comment received acts as another drop of nourishment to my soul and I very much appreciate all your visits.

For those who wished me well on my job search, I've been offered a position in a start-up beginning in the New Year - I just have to keep my fingers crossed that the start-up takes off. There are still some financing issues to take care of but the prospects loo

I'm pretty impressed... but the overcast surely wasn't complete...

@Earnest: It was pretty gray... certainly not as brightly lit as it appears in these pics! :)
