Golden Gate

In camera with MAVDU enhancement (vaseline)
We've seen it on a clear day and we've seen it shrouded in fog. Have we ever seen it like this? Do we ever want to see it like this?!

Jerry Berry Yeah, thanks Thomas. I'm gonna have to get some stock in Mal's company so I might be able to retire some day :-)

Just the right amount of blurring to create this poetic effect

Jerry Berry Thanks Jef. I "can" be subtle sometimes.

I thought that you had used the MAVDU Jerry? This looks tack sharp to me!.... Hehe, love the shot. mal

Jerry Berry Well it is tack sharp.
Thanks Mal. You are such an inspiration to me.
I think I'm gonna go find some vaseline with high numbered UV protection so I won't have as much problem blowing the highlights. What number do you use? ;-)

Mal Smart Factor 50! lol

This was a diffrent and nice way to look at Golden Gate. I'm particulary found of the right part of the photo with the sun coming thru the bridge column. Another great one from you.

Jerry Berry Thanks Johannes. That bridge has been shot about as much as Yosemite Valley. I was hoping to get it in a unique way. Maybe I succeeded?

I also didn't know what MAVDU meant (a problem of Germans? ;-). Thanks for the explanation to Klaus.

I like the image and what MAVDU did :-))

Jerry Berry Thanks KPK.

Very interesting technique. I like it. The resulting photo is wonderful. And what a corresponding light.

I understood you used vaseline to get the special filter effect. But did you also move the camera? And what does the abbreviation MAVDU mean?

Jerry Berry Thanks Klaus. MAVDU stands for Mal's Automatic Vaseline Dispensing Unit. It has been a joke that has gone around here for some time. Sorry if it threw you off track a bit. I am aware that not all here are aware of that term.
Thanks again.

JB

Klaus Ratzer Har, har. Thanks for your explanation.
