Trying something a little different here, what do you think? Sometimes it's nice to get away from all the cold and lifeless shots of buildings and bridges.

abstract digital art:

all elements of this image were created by me

 

I've had an idea about painting on canvas and then using a needle to poke through the canvas and add threads to the image. It's fun to try it digitally to see what it might look like. My idea was to have the threads all hang vertically and be lose at the bottom. It seems that horizontal threads would either have to be stretched straight across the canvas or hang in lose arcs unless I stitch in and out of the canvas to made them wavy. Or perhaps I can have the threads cross over each other, so it is impossible to tell which thread is which.

 

October 19, 2018: I've finally gotten around to woking on a handmade work based on this image. It is actually quite different in color, composition and even in the shape of the canvas (square). Once it is completed, I'll take a photo and post it, then add a link to it here. It will probably take me a few more days to complete it.

Idea from a magazine, saw it, liked it, worked it. Just simple folded paper and an L.E.D. torch. Camera on a tripod, manual focus, two minute time. Very little editing because I liked the result as it stands..thanks for looking :-)

Yesterday I showed you an image that I had transformed through processing. Today I show an effect entirely prodused in the camera. I have only changed the color temperature to create a more wintry feel. I made this image by using a spotlight to highlight the falling snow. I focused relatively close and with a wide open aperture to create a shallow depth of field - I wanted the foreground texture to dominate and the background to be slightly dreamy. I then utilized the good stabilizer in this lens to handhold the shot with a slower shutter speed (you could also use a tripod), and allow the trail of the swirling snow to be captured. There is a sweet spot for this: too short an exposure, and you get no movement. Too long an exposure, and you just get busyness...or longer, the snow disappears. But here is a natural abstract that has a painterly quality...all in camera. To see yesterday's workflow article, click here:
