One of the themes from Saturday's Big Issue in the North Photomarathon was Intrigue and this was my entry for that theme. Straightened ever so slightly and contrast boosted - all the shots on the day were SOOC. It certainly made you think much more carefully about composition.
Former home of James McAlpine Tait, a printing compositor in the 1850s and later a newspaper owner. See his entry in the Notables Database:

The subjects of this photo is the bottle cap. To edit it, I decreased the exposure, increased the contrast, decreased the highlights, increased the shadows, increased the whites to bring out the color of the clear bottle that the camera is looking through, and decreased the blacks. For the color editing, I brought up the tint of the image and increased the vibrancy a little bit. I cropped the image to have the subject be following the rule of thirds
This is a good composition because it has balance between the two trophies and also the golden colour stands out really well due to the brightness and shininess. There's also reflection of me taking the photo in the glass.
This picture was taken up close on a pond. Rather than have the lilypads around the flower take away from its beauty, I decided to frame the flower. The reason I did not fill the frame was because I wanted the viewer to notice that this flower was in water and not land. I tried to use the rule of thirds when taking this photo.

Made this for going back to school, and I used Japanese fabric. Take a cheap .50 cent composition notebook and make it fabulous.
composition book journal- layered paper background with paint, a la Kelly Kilmer... many, many layers of paint and much scrubbing with paper towels over a base layer of torn/glued paper. edges are stamped with bubble wrap for added texture.

During the first workshop in December 2013, the composers worked with the four highly experienced singers of VOCAALLAB (high soprano, mezzo/alto, low tenor, baritone) and Eva Reiter (viola da gamba, Paetzold bass recorder) on these pieces. The singers also presented topics from older and contemporary repertoire, in order to study and compare this material, to share their experiences, and show them different ways of singing and writing for the voice, including topics like the use of text, the different styles of vocalization (from bel canto to traditional or popular voices, world music, noises and new sounds made possible by amplification, the voice as pure instrument, speaking and transitioning from speaking to singing).
This workshop included a lecture by Wouter Snoei, regarding the question of how to use electronics in relation to voice.
