Bike in Amsterdam

I’m not really one for using selective colour on my monochrome images, however I figured this one lended itself well to the technique.  The image on its own was a little boring, and the background was overexposed.

The image was converted to black & white using an adjustment layer in Photoshop. The red areas of the bike were erased from the layer mask, letting the red show through.

Big Wheel

Big Wheel

A big wheel on a crane that was parked near the Mimico Creek pedestrian bridge (seen in the last post).  There were two of these large cranes parked in the lot, probably being used to launch sailboats in the nearby marina.
