Here's the old background. Very, very little Photoshop done to this one, just a global curve adjustment layer. Shot of California Highway 35 South, the famous Skyline Boulevard down near Woodside. Awesome road to drive on. This day it was so empty on the roads (it usually is, but this day was especially traffic-free) that i stood on this spot in the middle of the road, with my tripod for a good 5 minutes snapping away before i could HEAR the car coming behind me a good 5 curves away. it is THAT peaceful and quiet.
This is also the road that was shot for the banner at the top of the page. After the car i heard passed, i walked back to the side of the road where my car was parked, and made a wiiiide angle stretchy stitch.
Speaking of this road, i'll probably be taking the GoPro out in a week or two (or if the weather warms up a bit) and shoot a video of the drive from the left turn on 92 all the way to 4 corners. it's a 12.5 mile drive; but i hope the drive is "interesting" enough not to warrant a time lapse. the video won't be longer than 15 minutes, i can promise you that though.
So, after this, i'll be putting up a new banner, background image, and color scheme. I may or may not upload the banner, i'll make a decision after i have Ps open.
Be Right Back.
