Tonight's submission is from Pablo, aka @ptato, let's hear about his process.

 

I took a pic of the sunset from the window of the flat I live in in London, as the light and the skyline looked great. I like pics with lots of space and air that can be "filled" with patterns, shapes, etc. Another of my obsessions is symmetry and the interaction of geometrical shapes with pictures, so I tried to follow this approach on this one. I am an absolute amateur on the world of photography so I have to massively rely on intuition and constant trial/error, but that makes the editing more fun and pressure free.

The apps I used for this pic, and in general in all my edits, were: Snapseed (basic cropping, tone adjusting and for the final filtering and scratching of the image. I love playing with the Drama and Retrolux modes), Image Blender (such a quick and easy app to work with, probably the tool I use more), Decim8 (Beamrider and Tribomb are my favorite filters), Flowpaper (for the chimney smoke), Phonto (for main triangle and circle shapes) and Mirrorgram, one of my favorite apps by far! I blended some Mextures, NDpatterns and DSpatterns on this pic too.

Thanks so much to Mobile Artistry for the feature and specially to Tyler (tylerlinahan), it is such an honor!

ptato: @anettegoranzon @nattysxm @caroline2645 @billsmith2315 @paoliz_1129 and everyone else, thanks SO much for your words, so happy that you like my smokey patterned tripey sunset!!!

 

ptato: @carried_the_world hey buddy! I sometimes just write symbols as the triangle, circles etc. in a white plain background in Phonto and then export it as an image that I blend with the pic with ImageBlender. You can also find great symbols and patterns on IG such as Lorystripes, DSpatterns, OGshapes, ARfilters and many more...
