To continue with my "Best of 2008" series, here is another one of my personal favorites. This is Jacob and his great-grandfather, Al, going for a walk up the hill. Jacob loves going to see "Grandpa on the hill" because he loves playing outside and riding the tractors.
I took this shot one afternoon using my Canon 40D and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens.
For processing, I uploaded this to Flickr and used the Picnik editor to add a cross-processed effect and the vignetting. I really need to find a program or action to add cross-processing effects to images, it's one of my favorites effects if used on the right shot. Funny, I never really cared for cross-processed pictures before I got into photography.
As far as software goes, I like Nik Software's Color Efex Pro 3.0. This program comes in three versions, and the full blown one has some fantastic filters to use in post-processing. The full blown version is a bit pricey and the cheaper versions do not offer the cross-processing filter.
Just one more fave from 2008 left.....then I'll have to start working on making some for 2009. I've been slacking off with the pictures lately.
