Title - Lawman

March 2010 Image

How I did it -The original was taken in Tombstone, AZ. The image was first processed in Lightroom for tone and clarity and then opened in Photoshop. I used Topaz ReMask to select the man from a busy background and then used Akvis Sketch 10 to create the sketch. I recently submitted reviews on both plug-in filters to the PSA Journal.

Member Bio
Stan Ashbrook, FPSA - Biography

  I have been a member of PSA for almost 30 years. I've been interested in both slides and prints, having had a darkroom for many years where I enjoyed both mono and color printing, but when we sold our home a couple of Years ago, the darkroom had to go, a sad day. The computer rescued me and I now do things in my computer I used to dream about doing in the darkroom.
  I have been a PSA Chapter Chairman, Zone Director, DR, Chairman of Chapters Committee, Chairman of PSA's Nominating Committee past Chairman of EID. I am also a member of a digital photography club called Digital Photographic Artists which I helped found. I'm also VP of the Florida Camera Club Council.
  I was a Manufacturers Representative for Electronic components and now retired. In other words, I sold the electronic things inside computers and other things electronic to people who make computers and other electronic equipment. As you can guess, it was a natural to develop an interest in computers and soon as they became affordable, I jumped in, replacing my darkroom with what Sil Horwitz, FPSA refers to as my Lightroom. I have been married to my wife Bev for 47 years and have 2 sons, one a PSA member and former PSA Scholarship winner whose true love is Stereo photography but he is now learning his Nikon D70.
  I sold all of my film cameras and purchased an Olympus E20, which I sold when I bought a Canon Digital Rebel, 17 -55 mm and 75-300 IS lens. I use a PC, Windows 2000 and Photoshop CS. I teach Photoshop at a couple of local locations. I use an Epson R200 printer.
