Beautiful, wild Scotland

digital photo: Phone Home
Photo:519 * 740 pixels (1M)
Date:2 septembre 1998
Camera:Pentax ME super / Fujicolor
Editor:Photoshop Elements

I took this photo during vacations through Scotland. It summarizes the unique nature of Scotland: a wild land with the comfort of a European country.

I was pleased with the composition but I have always been frustrated by two high-voltage lines in the sky of the original photo. Having learned how to use Photoshop, I scanned the photo, removed the lines and added clouds. The result better reflects on my feelings when I took the picture.

The photo was printed on Kodak paper. I scanned at 150 dpi with a Logitech ScanPage. I post-processed it with Adobe Photoshop Elements, deleting unwanted elements in the background and adding clouds in the sky.
