Portfolio
I want to introduce you to a great portfolio. If it is my understanding, this portfolio just went up a couple of weeks ago. I found this link at Scott Kelby’s blog: Photoshop Insider. The website is a portfolio of Matt Kloskowski’s photographs. It is a beautifully designed site with big pictures.
Photograph
I found this lioness in Nairobi Natonal Park in Kenya. Normally, you don’t see lions there, but I have seen them 2 out of the 3 times that I have gone. This one had a litter of cubs hiding in the bush behind her. I photographed her just as she glanced up to watch an airplane overhead. Nairobi National Park is near the airport, and sometimes you can get a shot of animals with the Nairobi skyline in the background. I have one of a giraffe, maybe I will put it up some day.
This particular photograph had a lot of grass sticking up from the bottom. I felt like it was very distracting, so I used the clone tool in Photoshop to remove most of it. The new clone tool in PS4 is awesome and so easy to use.
