Photos were then imported into Photoshop where the B&W ones had the color channels removed to give me black and white photos. Images were then "Dark Roomed" in Photoshop, cropping and adjusting brightness and contrast, and dodging and burning areas to either lighten or darken overexposed or underexposed areas as I felt they should be. The finished photos where then saved in Photoshop format,  Downsized and sharpend, the exported to JPG.

The final images you see here are all original true photographs, nothing has been digitally added or changed. Nothing has been done to them other that what can be done in a normal darkroom, most of which is just correcting exposure and lighting. But thanks to modern Digital technology, it is far eaiser, faster, cheaper, and better than anything I could have done using film and print.

I tried as best I could to bring out in the photos what I  originally saw, and share that with you.. feel free to send me any comments or questions you may have at the e-mail address listed on the home page.

** As a note, all the photos have now been moved to P-base instead of on my own site. They can be found by going here: http://www.pbase.com/davidianhale
