A Stitch in Time – John Muir House

A Stitch in Time - John Muir House

From the Attic of the John Muir House, is a Domestic sewing machine.  It is pretty cool to see the simplicity of the old sewing machines compared to their modern counterparts.   You can see some of the leaf and flower etchings in the metal.  This shot was backlight substantially from the window.  I used three exposures to balance it a bit more like what was actually seen, then did some color toning to drive home the antique feel.

Stored Memories - The John Muir House Attic

In the attic of the John Muir house, there is this cool, old baby carriage.   This shot was challenging since it was really dark.  As you can see there are some harsh shadows from the light bulbs off-frame.  Again, this is a 3 exposure HDR image, with the longest being 30 seconds.  In PP, I tried to create a very dusty, old feel that was the modern lighting attempted to steal from the scene.
