Images using products

[Eric Neilsen]

Here is a link to some of my images. They don't exclusively use Imagenomic plug ins, but do include Noiseware as a starting point. I'll be adding some more to this page over the next week as well as taking care of a few opps when I generated the pages.

Care to share a few of your techniques?

It may be better if you ask about a specific image, but I can certainly give you an idea of my workflows. Yes workflows, I am not a one type of workflow guy.

I shoot with a Nikon D200 and also have many negs both color and B&W from formats going from 110, 127, 2 1/4 , 4x5, 35mm. Those get scanned using my Nikon 9000 scanner as well as an older Epson flatbed that is in need of an upgrade.

Process RAW NEF files in Lightroom for the most part. After exporting to PS CS3, I use noiseware on a new layer. Just on the off chance that I want to allow some of the grit back in. I rarely do, but it is much easier to with a mask layer. Then I continue to let the image develop in my mind. I may have a set idea when I sit down to work or I may just be playing with new looks.

I typically have an adjustment layer for local contrast control so I might run one or more copy layers with Real Grain to play with contrast.

I try to stay in 16bit when possible which is most o fthe time but there are a few plug in that don't work with 16 bit, so when I need to convert, I do.

I am going to review some of images now and give a little more illustrative insight.

The first four are all film originals. I used some Flaming Pear plug ins on many of the images on that page. Flood was on the first one. Mr. Contrast is also being used. I keep a copy layer to allow for masking of the effects and also a good control over the opacity of the layers. Blending the effects with where I want them to com through.

Real Grain is being used onseveral to enhance colors, and some grain, and additional contrast control.

I love the effects on English Winds and A Wrinkle in Time. Especially English Winds. Was the Lucis plugin used at all in that one?

No, I used scanning techniques and Flaming Pear Mr Contrast. There is some noiseware as well.

Here are a few more examples of before and after with Portraiture and Noiseware.
