Douglas Hall (2/5/07)
An OLD building on campus that I have to redesign for my advanced studio class. This is taken in the middle of the building from one side to the other (34'-6"). I cropped it and did some perspective cropping to exaggerate the lines of the lighting and the floor tiles. Then I adjusted the levels in PS and added some contrast and saturation too. Then I worked with it in Picnik to give it this look. It feels to me like a flashback with the soft focus, the sepia, and the vignetting.
Not actually taken on 2/5/07, but certainly representative of my day. I started my day far too early for a Monday, started work at 8:00, left for school at 11:15, got little to nothing done in class because of boring logistical issues, went back to work until 6ish, met Mark for dinner, went back to campus to meet my class mate at 8:45 due to the logistical issues previously mentioned so we could finish measuring this building for our project, finally got home about 10:40.
I now officially detest, loath, hate, abhor, etc. this building. It's nasty and awkward and keeps popping up in projects. I don't ever want to see it again. Sadly, that will be all too soon.
I actually took this picture on Saturday on my first round of measuring the building. Monday was the first day, since I got my new camera on December 25th, that I actually left the house without it. It's just too heavy to have my backpack and my books, etc. and my camera. I took Mark's old camera, but I just wasn't inspired to use it. The long day and late hours didn't help my creative slump.
It also appears that I'm going to need to modify this resolution of mine and allow myself to miss days during school and/or do more of like I'm doing now and use a picture that is representative of that day even if it wasn't taken on that day. I do so like to look at this set and see my time represented in images.
