      I believe it is Cutchogue. Look for "Educational Cultural Center" on Google Map.

  • @uncle0eric
    @uncle0eric 13 дней назад

    Nice. It seems to me you could also do it in Camera Raw and do all the bulbs at once and all the ceiling parts by combining masks.

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot 2 дня назад

      Yes, I believe you are correct friend. I am just more used to Photoshop. Also, the lasso tool on the ceiling gives more flexibilty but one could mimic it in LR.

  • @michaelsd284
    @michaelsd284 13 дней назад

    Thanks for the video, however based on the design the island pendant lights are being used as "task lighting" and should be throwing light downward on to the island work space and not to the ceiling.

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot 2 дня назад

      They do shine both ways as there is nothing to block the light from the ceiling. Regarding the island, given the angle I was shooting at, I don't believe the lights would be very visible.

    Jay thank you so much for the critique. Story behind that macro shot I took. I had just bought the Z105 macro lens because I wanted to dive into macro photography. It was mother's day. I bought some flowers as gives and before I gavecthem, I decided to test the lens out. It was my first go at macro photography. Took me awhile to understand it. I did take many shots and stiched them together with Helicon Focus. Moral of the story, just get out and shoot some photography. There's subject everywhere!

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot 2 дня назад

      So cool. I looked at it again and really like it. The lighting is also very good!! I assume you used a flash?

    Thanks Jay, inspirational body of work from one of my fave YT photoghaers. I'll be visitng NYC from Australia for 2 weeks April/May 2025 so I have been rewatching all your NYC videos. Have bookmarked heaps of the locations you've visitied over the years. I love architecture so really looking forward to locations like the Citigroup building, the 4 corners in the financial district you did, skyline views from NJ and especially the TWA hotel at JFK...I have to give that one go.

    A very good year, Jay. I love the variety of genres that you explore, and quite successfully at that. I felt particularly drawn to the autumn barn image with the beautiful rust/ orange tree and background foliage. Elegant in its simplicity in both composition and color tones. Wishing you a great 2025! I’ll be watching!

    • @JCImagesBehindtheShot
      @JCImagesBehindtheShot 29 дней назад

      Thanks Bill! I don’t think it’s possible in Lightroom as I employed different layers in Photoshop and changed the opacity. I will put some thought into that.

    Nice! I was at Mongers a couple of weeks ago looking for the same thing - props for some still lifes - great place to do it. In fact I am seeing the owner of Mongers tonight - we are old friends and I photographed Monger's Market as he renovated the buildings over several years. Amazing place. Thanks for posting the video and maybe we will cross paths in the area at some point (I am in Weston)...
