[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Lately it seems like weekends are the only time I get to play. Maybe that will ease up a little soon. The circuit board is replaced on my 10D, but the Tamron lens has moisture in it (which is what caused the circuit board to corrode). It might be fixed before I leave for vacation next week (fingers crossed). I bought a Digital Rebel in the meantime (as a backup camera). It's nice, much lighter than the 10D, but the operation doesn't feel as smooth.

This is another Montreal shot. I was attracted by the bright red trim on the Roche-Bobois store (near McGill University), so I ducked inside to see if I could find some interesting angles. When I looked at the shots later, I liked this shot of a stairwell-atrium combo, but the light was pretty strong on the second floor, washing out the plants and the floor/ceiling opening (see workshop for the original). I tried some adjustments, but wasn't happy with any of them, so I decided to cover them with glass.

I cropped down to the essentials (the opening), adjusted levels until I had the balance I wanted, selected the rim of the opening, and applied Photoshop's Distort/Glass filter with the Blocks texture, making it appear as if the opening was glassed in (details in the workshop).
