For Sale Coal Country

US 209 through south-central Pennsylvania is an interesting ride through a struggling region. Photographically interesting, but intimidating to me to stop and capture. But I guess that Summer is for traveling and my images lately have been further afield than my usual suburban landscapes.

This image was entirely post processed with Capture NX2. The 2.0 version of Capture NX is a very capable program and could serve as my only post processing software when dealing with my Nikon D300 images. Even with the Sigma DP1, after RAW conversion in SPP, I’m favoring post processing in NX2. The only fly in the ointment is that Capture NX doesn’t play well with Aperture, so I’m faced with the separate folder structure containing the edited NEFs and Exported TIFFs. But as long as I leave file names the same, I’m OK with the moving in and out of Aperture.
