My model Sarah-Jane is shot against a neutral grey background and composited into the scene.

All backgrounds are themselves composites of various elements to create a 'hopefully' dramatic theatrical quality.

Sittin' outside the shack by Mark Frost

Sittin' in the shade. Playing a soulful tune :)

I've modified my workflow a little for these newer images. I used to rely on the 'unsharp-mask-to-simulate-dodging-and-burning' trick - but now I tend to work on a 50% grey layer set to 'overlay' and paint black or white of varying opacity onto it to give the dodging and burning effect I'm after. For these pics, at least, it seems to do the job.

Here's the before and after comparison:

The background is from DeviantArt.

To be honest. I had no idea where this was going. Just liked the warmth of the image. The background was shot in the grounds of a stately home in Cornwall.

ZERO-G CELEBRATES INTERNATIONAL TOWEL DAY, MAY 25TH 2006- THE RESTAURANT AT THE END OF THE UNIVERSE by ROB JAN

5 23

Your towel and a nice hot cuppa tea.

All you need to enjoy the final Apocalypse at Milliways, the Restaurant At The End Of The Universe.

In tribute to the works of the late Douglas Adams, creator of the wholly remarkable Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy.

________________________________________

The ritzy stone my towel ("Mao" to all his flannel mates) is draped over is a piece of building facade on display at the Melbourne Exhibition Building Gardens. The rest is all down to Photoshop filters. The teacup came out of my partner's Bestest China cabinet. I reckon the End Of The Universe would be a suitably grand occassion to bring it out!

I set up a number of pictures for this year's towel day, none of which I was able to do on the actual day, it was wayyyyy too busy a week for that.

But I did carry Mao (and "Red", my other companion towel) with me all day on the 25th, when he proved endlessly useful to pillow my head on the train, amongst all the other usual duties.

This shot became an interesting experiment in the art of Frequency Separation. I liked this shot of Yann playing his bass but he was frowning quite a bit at the camera. So, I opted to tackle this one like full-on beauty retouching to see how much I could eradicate any unwanted lines and furrows.

I then composited the shot in the usual way, using the rendered bar scene I used from an earlier shot.

Apologies for recycling but my laptop has broken, so unfortunately this is the best I can do.

I've been to two funerals this year for people who have died of cancer. That's two too many.

My daughter's nursery has a big day planned today and we've paid £5 for her to paint a canvas with the money going to Macmillan.

[ - fragment reanimation proect four twenty-thre skiddoo - ] by mijnheer TRONA

[ From an iphone image fragment collage experiment using in-camera frame manipulation ]

This simply started in my doctor's office waiting room when I noticed one cool result from accidentally overlaping frames while hastily e-flipping through an album. The combination of two images almost immediately became four, five, ad nauseam, and the storage alloted for photos was overtaken by this aggressive outbreak. Classic OC-me. After posting one, I promised/threatened ;} to flood my steam with these oddities. I thought it prudent to post a random few, however, and not to worry if you find these tedious or annoying, incidentally... classic me, I'll become distracted by another fixation any moment.

For now, I post these for irina ch who kindly encouraged me, which I really appreciate (a relatively healhy obsession/project). Prost.

>>> Ingredients include the Jovian aurora, an Apollo 15 lunar image, and lightning from an April 27th storm (like a lunatic, I was outside shooting such images..... directly over my head).

The ace of bass by Mark Frost

Yann, master of the slap bass from the Bonneville Barons.

The background is a photoshop creation which has been composited into the scene.

I shot Yann against a neutral grey background and then it's all composited in with it's new background in Photoshop, layered and blended, with use of photo filters to give everything an overall balanced colour cast to help everything sit together.

Haha, that was my favorite song when I was little.

Anyway...I am so unbelievably proud of this picture...

I'm still in shock. I can't believe I actually created this. I <3 GIMP!

Thanks guys :]

*The clouds in my eye were not photographed by me. I found the picture on a site, I just forget which.*

Post-processing inspired by Rosie!

Sure, it looks pretty much nothing like her stuff...

But I have great aspirations of having photos just as amazing as hers!!

So this is a step in the right direction... I think.

I made this from a photo just below, intending it to be a page header, but I couldn't get the aspect ratio right and kept getting that annoying head shake from Flickr, with no explanations, so I gave up.

I like the almost Japanese print look imparted to it by the color and line, though, so I'm posting it despite its strange shape. You will notice that the shark is gone. I apologize for that little deception, which did not belong in this image.
