Watchman Textured
This week, The Digital Photography School posted a helpful tutorial on how to add textures to your images. CLICK HERE. Adding textures is really easy in either Photoshop or Photoshop Elements (I recommend version 9) and although it can be trial and error, it’s always fun.
It reminded me of an image from last October of the Watchman and Virgin River in Zion National Park. Because it was an extremely overcast day, a straight photo would have been disappointing so I visualized the scene with added textures and shot it with that purpose in mind. I’m really happy with the result!

Cottonwood Roots
We encountered this magnificent Cottonwood tree along the trail to Lower Pine Creek Falls in Zion. It’s very close to the creek so the roots are being bared a little more each time it overflows making the tree twist and turn to survive. Richard and I stopped and photographed it for quite awhile making Chris wonder what happened to us 🙂
Taken with my Canon 10-22m lens which can produce great wide angle macros.

Soft Water
It was overcast for much of our time in Zion National Park but there was just enough light to make the muddy Virgin River and rocks glow with the reflection of fall colors.
Canon 180 Macro, ISO 100, f/32, 1 second.
