I'm far from rich haha I just saved a lot of money plus got a grant where they would give me up to $5000 where I had to pay 30% of the grant. So you pay 30 dollars they'll give you 70, so on and so fourth. I got like 4,500+ with the grant, spent 2000 and a bit of the money I saved on my portion of the grant. NWT is great for their grant programs.

Thanks so much Yeah I definitely use photoshop, but not to really modify the images themselves. It depends yaknow? I shoot in RAW format, so I have to open them with a RAW development program, and make the adjustments to the image that the camera would have in regular jpeg format, like contrast, saturation, sharpness, etc. This image is an example of the most I actually change any of my photos these days. In this case, I converted it to black and white and added a color filter to get the right mood. The stretching of the clouds and everything else is all in-camera though. A Storm was clearing from the east and I did an 8 minute exposure of it.
