02.08.12 Lowell Mendyk
Lowell Mendyk has been a good friend and photographic mentor every since I was a junior at Madisonville-North Hopkins High School. Over the years we’ve had many photographic adventures together and still do today. I stopped by his house today to help with a computer issue; he is a little technology challenged when it comes to some things, and made this portrait in his office with two of his “kids.”
Post processing for this portrait was done with Photoshop CS5 with very little work done on it. I adjusted levels, dodged the edges a little and applied Topaz Adjust’s “Simple Pop” filter to round it off.
