Why I’ll never be a pirate

It’s 8am on a Saturday
ByDerek… and I’m up voluntarily. I realized this may be one of the last times that I am up voluntarily on a Saturday for 15 years or so. We’re in the home stretch of baby brewing time – 7 weeks to go. It’s not enough time! Not because we aren’t “ready” but because we have…

for something like this, to replicate the feel I think you want, you probably want to feather edges of your faux-vignette a little more and add a layer or two of grain to give it more of a realistic, film-y feel. Very cool shot, though.
