In some of the frames you can see what appears to be some type of luminescent materials.
At first, I thought it was a side-effect of the filters in combination with the electronic components & programming of the camera... Perhaps a side effect of the lens, or the inner workings of the DSLR which work VERY different than analogue, and use it's own internal calculated "algorithms" to filter what the image SHOULD look like.

But, my daughter kept find these rocks that were covered in a GREEN algae-like substance, and kept showing it to me. I was like: Uh-huh, that's nice... it's just some algae with some worm-like organism on it...

But, the things I'm picking up on the equipment SEEM to be showing THROUGH the water, form BENEATH it, and being refracted but the waves.

I was using a UV filter (one of several which I have) with a star cross-hair filter beneath that. So, I thought well it MUST be an optical effect of THAT, right?

But, the phenomena don't occur in ALL the photos, and ONLY in THAT spot.

Also the green glow shows no signs of the STAR effects on them like the glistening of the water ripple highlights.

I HAVE also heard of a type of algae or plankton that use bio-luminescence that can cause the beach to glow at some times of the year. I just never heard of it this far North.

So... is it bio material?

Or, is it a mechanical effect?

October New England Sky 2012

October 2012
South Weymouth, MA, 2013
With orange gradient filter

Photographs by Artist "Black UniGryphon" Kandice Kathleen Zimbleman

I photographed these inside of an Colonial Graveyard near the Southshore Hospital in South Weymouth, MA.

I was lounging on a bench when I decided to shoot some frames, and see what I could come up with.

I used an orange gradient filter.

Greenish Autumn Foliage Cheating

 Having a Fall foliage autumn that's too greenish?

Yeah! I hate that too! 2012 & 2011 were like that!

Why bother doing it in Photoshop, when you could do a simple easy way to cheat on your photos that's LOW-TECH and CHEAP?!

 The trick is a gradient filter. You can usually buy them in blue or orange. They wee originally for film cameras, but you can still buy them VERY CHEAP on Amazon.com!

I think I paid a few dollars for each one. Vintage are better, if you can. Don't fret if the filter is a different size than your lens. You can just get an adapter for like $1-2!

The gradient filter is great because you can swivel them, and get a more organic look!

You can see the real colors fade into the more saturated reds.

Or, if it's a cloudy day, you can make it look brighter, sunnier, or like a sunset.

It's nice to mess around with!

I've also used them for stage/show events.

And, they can also be used with black & white, if you want some colors to show more than others in the grays cale tones, like the sky.

 

Misc Greenish Yellow Autumn in New England Fisheye

Just some mis. fall foliage photos, from New England. Kinda disappointing with the colors in 2012.

Using a Japanese wide angle Fisheye lens with macro.

The fisheye breaks-up some of the vertical lines. Some Dutch tilt in here too.
