Through The Time Dilation Window
This started out as a diptych of a scene at Spring Grove Ponds for a challenge shot for Saturday Self Challenge 18/05/2024 --- Seasonal Diptych .
Well I chose Spring Grove for my shot having taken shots here at all times of the year in the past and an advantage here is that I can stand at exactly the same spot as I did in the past . The bank of the ponds have around the edge areas for the anglers to sit in separate bays while the rest of the pond edge is just natural and not easily got at . So chose a good shot and in this case from back in Janurary at a time when the trees were bare and there was a thin layer of ice on the water . Now locate the correct bay to stand in with the same camera set at the same focal distance and take another shot last weekend after Stoker had set the challenge .
Next job was to get both shots and roughly crop them with just a small amount of overlap , reduce the opacity of one side and with the branches of one specific tree I could overlap the scenes exactly - bring back the opacity and job done ! Technically I was happy with the two seasons in one shot joined together exactly , but it seemed to lack something so with a bit of help from my daughter and her craft editing programme we put the whole scene as seen through a window - even the latch on the window was created from a fancy belt buckle cropped down .
So here we have the scene through the plain glass of the window taken last weekend with all the trees in leaf and the scene on the right of the cold and the leafless trees as viewed looking through the Time Dilation Glazing !! ( just a shame the joining is not visible when it went so well ) .
Going back even further through time through the windows here is " See Through Windows " and Family !!
