When it’s rainy and dark in Seattle, it is nice to work through my photo library and re-edit old shots, or discover great shots that somehow made it past first inspection.
Time and distance has put a new perspective on my collection of shots from the Plains of Colorado. As I page through the files, I am experiencing alternating waves of nostalgia and mild home sickness. Although remembering how cold the Denver winters can be quickly quells that homesickness. You can keep your numb fingertips, I will take the rain.
Anyway, I have been using Nik Silver Efex Pro to breathe new life into some of my older photos. Combined with Nik Color Efex Pro, I am able to generate some great shots that show the beauty of the plains.

I’ve finally decided to get Nik software and I’ll be trying to do the same thing. These landscape shots are stunning!
