DIGITAL PROCESSING TECHNIQUES:
Images were processed with Adobe Photoshop 6.0 or 7.0,
and saved as
JPEGs with minimum compression, or as compressionless
TIFFs. For example, the Cobb Gate gargoyle scanned
in as follows. Notice that the scanner has clearly distorted the colors and
resolution, making the scanned image quite different from what I actually
saw. |

After adjusting tone curves, brightness, contrast, hues, color balance, and sharpness, the image was finalized. Note that the color of the snow and sky matches what I observed. |

In several photographs scratches and specks of dust (example below) manifested in the scanned
images. Since these artifacts did not show up in the prints, I used
Photoshop to digitally erase them. |

Aside from the dust and scratch removal, no other
techniques were used to process the photos.
