Visiting A Friend @ SHH



Yesterday after church, we visited a dear friend of ours at Scottsdale Healthcare Hospital. Our friend, Ron, has had severe health issues since his car accident over 20+ years ago when he was hit, head on, by a drunk driver. By God's grace he survived the near fatal accident and became a believer in Christ! Even though his health is an up and down roller coaster for him, he praises the Lord for the work in his life and for His sovereignty. We had such a precious visit with him! Praise the Lord he is recovering well from his recent surgery.

The photo for this post is the entrance to SHH. The original shot was rather bland (over exposed). In addition to sharpening and adjusting the exposure, I also added a "neutral density gradient filter" on it.

An ND filter is a filter that can be attached to a camera lens, which intensifies the color of the sky (among other things). Since I do not own an ND filter for my camera, I learned how to create the same effect in Photoshop. Here's my first attempt... :)
