Turning It Around



Low Key Leanings, originally uploaded by jjvornov.

This is an interesting image for me as it ended up exactly 180 degrees from where it started. In the original image, the tree trunk in the front was the darkest, the trunk in the back was lighter and the background yet lighter.

I realized that for it to work, the front tree would have to be the most well lit, so I worked to push the light to the front and allow the rest of the scene to recede. I also for the first time used the Nik Pro Sharpener demo to bring out detail in the trunk on the front.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
