Hello, everyone! These will be the last two outtakes from the September 2016 lake house adventure. But we wanted to target these two ideas specifically, since we were eager to use some edits that weren’t applied to the first-choice versions. We desaturated the top photo in order to give it a vintage feel, hopefully matching the timeless mood of the image. Then we fiddled with the contrast on the bottom picture, bringing in some details that weren’t present the first time around (the vertical dock pillars at right, and the four deck chairs that were sitting about 20 feet in front of me.) It keeps the spooky feel of the original post, but adds some color to skin, water, and sky. Anyway, hope you like these! ~C
lovely photos,, reminded me of the senior picnic. very similar scene but was a great time that ended with some skinny dipping fun .. Thanks for the great photo that triggered a wonderful flash back
Oh, we’re so happy to have prompted a memory! How lovely! (Our evening ended with skinny dipping, too.) 😉 ~C
Timeless is a great word to describe the top photo. Exquisite lighting in the second photo. Nice choice of edits.
Thank you so much! I’m embarrassed to say how many shots we had to take, in the bottom photo setting, to get something we could use. 🙂 ~C
Two things come to mind. For the top photo, did he ask you to wear his class ring? And the bottom, pun intended, photo reminds me of skinny dipping in the lake at night as a teen. Both are great pictures you two!
I’m so glad you enjoyed them, lovely! 🙂 As to H’s class ring, he said it’s at the bottom of a (different) lake, and that it’s a long story. For the bottom photo, I was fully prepared to jump sideways into the water, if a boat full of fishermen had come into the cove! Happy Valentine’s Day to you & Hunter! ~C
