When i was stuck last November, I hit my neighborhood at night experimenting with HDR on various subjects. Long exposure would have provided me with better images, but like you, I was stuck creatively and was not looking for great images: I was looking to get unstuck. The process led to a free discoveries and accidentally led me to a new way (for me) to process images between LR and Photoshop that I continue to use on occasion to this day. I'm grateful for the interruption to my normal way of shooting. It we great brain/creativity therapy, as you have described here. I'm looking forward to giving this a shot now. Thanks for the post!
Great stuff, Donn! Impressionism rules! Glad you broke through your creative block. I will check out Alan Brown's work and his tutorial on the Pep Ventosa technique.
Great article and dead on.
Fighting the block is a constant effort.
Nice work Donn, I know this technique though I haven't tried it myself. Did some ICM years ago that still pleases me when I look at it.
very interesting! and oh, thanx for the shoutout!
Great images. Love them Donn

Excellent. Let me (or all of us) know how it goes for you!
Interesting technique and results, Donn! Looks very technical though.
Thanks so much for including perfectlight‘s and mine collaboration!
Of course! it's a collaboration that people should see, if they haven't already.
Interesting idea - another thing to put on my list of things to try :)
