You can get it at Really Japan Blog. I just love the effect it produces. Tonight for example I just went out on a balcony and started shooting random objects I could aim my lens at. Downloaded them to my iMac, and few minutes later I end up with something that I like very, very much. Borrowing from the Really Japan blog these photos have that “gritty, harsh, raw, very analogish, almost punk” look.

A perfect sunset at the lake. The water is just right, the cloudage is just right. As a matter of fact, I think everything is just right.

Somehow I just like the colors in this one. This is a perfect example of things not being what they seem.

In reality it was a misty autumn morning that got some extra processing in Lightroom to make it look slightly different. I especially like the way the boats came out. But in order to appreciate it you need to see the big version of this photo. My Flickr friends can do this by going to ‘All sizes’.

He is in Australia, I am in Switzerland and used to be there. The photos are of the places I used to visit. I did some post processing in Lightroom on them and here is the result. Used some gradual filters on the first photo. The result is quite dramatic wouldn’t you say.

This used to be color photo. Then it became black and white one. Then, after application of RAW Bleach bypass preset I ended up with this. As my friend commented in this post, this style reminds him of Mulholland Drive film by David Lynch. Hence the title.
