Yep, you guessed it tonight was one of my favorite parts of #PSW and that is the party at the House of Blues.  Now I have shot here a lot in the past during previous Photoshop World events, but this one was a bit more special because besides Big Electric Cat tearing it up as always, they had a special guest (Scott Diussa of Nikon) get up on stage and got to sit in with the band.  It was a great time.  Here are a couple of snaps from it last night…

So it has been slightly nuts to say the least around here.  We just moved into the new place and as with all moving blunders, I couldn’t find half of my gear until today.  Luckily the Black-Tailed deer decided to come back today and hang out in the front yard.  Slowly but surely I am going ot get back up and running around here.  The computers are up and running as of last night (luckily nothing fried), and I have found all of my gear including some stuff I forgot I had…  It is like Christmas in August…

Stay tuned, more to come

Yep, you guessed it.  It is a BIG rock in the middle of Texas.  This place was a great stop on the TLS a lot of different scenes all in one place.  The rock formations themselves are wild.  Layer upon layer of rock just bulged up out of the ground and has slowly been eroding back down to earth over the past couple 100K years or so.  To me it looked like I was standing on a pair of Volcanic Cores, but I was schooled in the ways of Texas geography and am better for it now (Thanks Jeff!!)

Ok true there was no real part one, but remember that post about falling for falls? Yeah that was part 1. So I have been slowly getting through the last of my images from Texas, and I found a few more from Gorman Falls that I wanted to share. At the same time I am eating out how it is to do posts from the iPad, which so far is easy.

Loved the sunlight streaking through the water on this one. Only issues was that the warm glow of the morning sun had turned to a blazing white. So I dropped the image into the Brilliance/Warmth filter and added a touch of warmth to the water to bring back that glow.

Lastly, a non- hydro shot. The vegetation in the canyon is amazing. Jeff is not kidding in his posts when he says it’s a rain forest down there. This was a straight shot from camera the greens are amazing.

From last weeks amazing time at Pedernales Falls.  Had a fair share of some serious technical difficulties as of late with my computers, but I am typing this post on my new new and improved computer, so hopefully no more problems.  And if you haven’t been over to his blog since he got back home you need to head over to Jeff’s site and see some of the spectacular photos he captured while we were out and about.  More to come sooner than later from the trip.
