7 Photos Of The Week - Week 3 - #3 I really loved Nikon's photo processing on this one, which is why I tried to copy it almost exactly in darktable (I'm trying to practice my processing skills). Didn't get that close tbh.

7 Photos Of The Week - Week 3 - #1 Funny how I only realize I probably overdid the saturation an hour after getting done with this in darktable. god
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 3 - #6 I know I know, another Falls Park picture, but I like it.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 3 - #5 I don't know what this one means but there's a feel to it I guess.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 2 - #5 A friend is in this photo... can you see him? Also I maybe just realized that cranking up the exposure in darktable might not always be a good thing. I might re-process this and #6 one day.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 2 - #2 Do not question the pipes.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 2 - #4 A rather peaceful evening at McKennan. A kind of random photo but I thought it had a nice feel.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 2 - #6 Reflective jailbars Now that this is uploaded, I realize it looks kind of faded. Not sure why it looked fine when I was processing it. I proclaim this to be the weakest entry of week 2.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 2 - #7 I'm sure this spot has been photographed thousands of times, but here's my version of it!
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 1 - #2 I don't normally do B&W photos but in this case I think it definitely did fit.
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 1 - #5 I have a love hate relationship with local contrast (darktable)
7 Photos Of The Week - Week 1 - #4 I know Falls Park pictures are a dime a dozen, but I felt it was fitting at least for the debut week of the 7 Photos Of The Week project. (also hopefully no one will notice the foreground is slightly out of focus)
