This set is based on an image of the cobbled road to an old fishing village on the North Devon coast. The village, Clovelly, is privately owned and has been made into a tourist attraction. This small cobbled street is the only way down to the village and cars cannot use it. The locals drage their good around on improvised sleds...
I was attracted to the blue of the cobbles and their regular pattern. The cobbles originally came from the beach.
There are eight versions here - rather a lot I am afraid but I have been working on them for a month or so every now and again. Here are the processing notes:
I - Based on one of my own presets in Topaz Studio 2 (TS2). I like the textural look added in the stones.
II - TS2 based on the Ghostly Natural preset. This is one of my favourite versions for its abstract watercolour look.
III - Nik Analog Efex for the double exposure look. Curious.
IV - This is a more interesting version, at least to make. There are two layers here. The bottom layer is a straight Nik SIlver Efex mono and the top layer is a colour version with Box Blur used on it, and blended with Difference mode. Easy to do and an interesting haloed result.
The combination of a blurred version and a plain version is as old as photographic processing - it was used for all sorts of creative effects not least Unsharp Mask sharpening (the unsharp bit is the blurred layer superimposed on the original - the technique originally used film). I have an old creative darkroom techniques book and the idea that creative processing only arrived with digital programs is a complete myth.
V - This is another experiment. I used the TS2 preset Electrify which creates lines from the splines of curves in the image. The novelty here was that I only used the effect at reduced opacity and left some of the original to come through. I like the result - it reminds me a bit about how we perceive images in terms of curves and lines. This one is for Sliders Sunday.
VI - The regular lines make this an interesting image for mirroring. This is a straightforward 4-mirror distort in Affinity.
VII - TS2 again based on another preset I made for another picture. This is another subtle one adding a glass window effect in the stones. As the lines go the other way from the cobbles it creates a sense of balance.
VIII - This one is using Nik Color Efex, solarising in mono and then using a bicolor filter to get the colour gradient. Strongly sharpened with High Pass sharpening. One of my favourites, I think - almost pen and ink.
I’ll post a link to the in-camera original in the first comment of variant I. The commentary is the same for all.
Do let me know if you like any of these. They’re not the most interesting, I fear, but it was a fun play :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday :)
Y si, escribo EFICIENCIA con mayúsculas.
En este vídeo vemos un tren de contenedores camino del puerto de Rotterdam. El tren, el medio de transporte mas eficiente y respetuoso con el medio ambiente. Este tren, al igual que todos los que circulan por la red Holandesa, es movido por energía eléctrica producida gracias a la fuerza del viento, con aerogeneradores como el de la imagen, esparcidos por todo el país. Pero, es que para mas inri, esta linea es exclusiva para trenes de mercancías, es decir; pocos gradientes y cero paradas para cruces o rebases, energía malgastada reducida al mínimo.

Larger than usual pieces in this 500pc puzzle, which made for an easy build despite what looked like a difficult project. In fact it was completed in just a few hours (yesterday evening and this morning).
I started at the yellow end and worked up towards the red, as that seemed the easiest approach. In this instance my almost obssesive method of sorting into piece shapes proved the best way because relying on the colour gradation didn't always work. A surprisingly enjoyable 'make'.

(Description from Bodmin and Wenford Railway website)
Number 5552 is a resident of the Bodmin and Wenford Railway.
The first “small prairie” was built in 1904 to cope with the gradients of west country and welsh lines. It was an alteration on the theme of the “large prairie”. 5552 is a member of the 4575 class, which was a derivation of the 4500 class. The only difference being that the 4575’s had slope topped tanks, giving slightly larger water capacity. The 4575 class was built between 1927 and 1929, 5552 being completed at Swindon Works in November 1928. From there she entered traffic at Tysley shed and worked local services in the Birmingham area until 1931 when she was transferred to Bristol Bath Road. In 1937 she was transferred to Newton Abbot, this was the start of a long association with the Kingsbridge branch.
By 1955 new BR standard tanks arrived and 5552 was transferred to Plymouth Laira and then on to Truro where she was to stay until withdrawal in October 1960. Whilst at Truro her duties included the Falmouth, Newquay and Newham Quay branches working both goods and local passenger services. The loco stood at Barry scrap yard in South Wales for 25 years before being purchased by the B&W for restoration, she returned to steam in August 2003. As you can see from the picture above 5552 was in a very poor condition. So much so, that a group of enthusiasts went to Barry looking for a small tank engine, with the aim of purchasing 5552. When they saw the state of her they backed out and instead bought 4247, who would have thought that they would again be reunited… At a meeting of the Bodmin Railway Preservation Society, during some hard times for the railway, it was debated whether 5552 should be sold, luckily after a few raised words the decision was taken to keep her as an asset for the future.
The small prairies were perfect for the local service trains because they had good water capacity and could pick up to line speed quickly. Although they are not known for their traction, for their size they are not too powerful and can “pick up their feet”. The 4500 class were the usual engines on the Bodmin line, working only with 2 coaches, a “B set”, today we run with a normal loading of 3 or 4 coaches, however, in “steam days” the General-Parkway line speed was 40 mph.
