On a misty, moisty morning the water droplets in the air were so large you could see them wafting along in the breeze. I found crepuscular rays at a familiar spot.

About Project Toy:

On a busy holiday trip I kept a small number of toys in pocket, hoping for opportunity to improvise something in or around Atchison's old houses.

Barba Rossa no longer possible.

Processing notes:

Analog Efex (modified classic camera 4 preset)

Stopping at Albert Lea during a cloudy day commute.

 

Processing note: initial processing vis Fujifilm's Raw File Comverter EX 3.0 (powered by Silkypix) then finishing of the TIFF in lightroom.

I ran today's image through Poladroid in honor of 'Roid week - and also to disguise problems with shallow DOF in chosen camera settings. I didn't like my initial titles, and asked googleai for pretentious ideas and lazily took this one.

 

Processing notes:

Analog Efex (modified classic camera 2 preset) then Poladroid (beta release)

No matter how fast we hustle down those tracks

uncertainty, obstacles and unexpected turns

will confront us.

How we deal with these issues

with certitude, guile or brute strength

will define us.

The chaos of life is filled with knots ant diversions,

splits and support.

Tension can pull us taught

or the path can reveal multiple divergences.

What's right in front of you

can be a tangled mess.

While your overarching direction

fades into the mist.

Contrast enhanced with Silver Efex "Film noir" preset.

In-camera focus stacking of back-lit part of a (dusty) stainless steel scrubber.

I support them whenever I can.

 

Crispy processing note:

Contrast enhanced by a Daidoish curve adjustment, to crush black and blow highlights.

いつメンのスペースでお題を出して貰いました。提示されたのはこれ。

「翼/チョコミント/春っぽい/ピンク/空/栗色ロン毛/ポニーテール/足がかぎ爪」

チョコミントをメインに盛り込んでみました。

今までと塗りの重ね方を変えてみました。こっちの方が絵柄に合ってるかなぁ。

 

I have received a subject from the usual member's space. This is what was offered.

'Wings / chocolate mint / springy / pink / sky / chestnut rong hair / ponytail / feet with clawed nails'

I chose chocolate mint as the main motif.

I changed the way I layered the paint from before. I think this way suits the pattern better.

These photos are of a day we took a group of autistic children out to the Mohave desert for balloon rides. What an incredible day we had. It was perfect and the children were ecstatic as you could imagine. It was great fun. The personal rewards from this kind of activity are immeasurable.

Contrast enhanced with a "Daidoish" preset (contrast 90+, clear view 50+, blacks -40 or less, orange filter, tone curve adjusted to crush blacks and blow highlights)

The weight of the future is suspended above you.

But the excitement of the present is wrapped about.

You pause to savor this delicious moment

With no thought of what's beyond that red horizon.

'Twas another foggy morning.

 

Utata's summer project 2016 invites us to go... something.

 

A morning walk through the fog seemed suitable for the "go dreamy" category.

Utata's Iron Photographer challenge 265 asks for:

 

1. An umbrella, at least one but maybe more.

2. A window, only one

3. square format

オク下で「赤いスイートピー」を歌ったら、イメージがマッチョ気味のお兄さんにしかならなくなったので、兄さんと赤いスイートピー。似合わんね😶

それはさておき、わたしにも徐々に筋肉質キャラが描けるようになってきていて嬉しい。

 

When I sang of Japanese old pop song "Red Sweet Pea" under Ok, my image became nothing but a macho-looking brother, so brother and red sweet pea. It doesn't suit me 😶

Aside from that, I'm glad that I'm slowly getting better at drawing muscular characters.

For some reason, Hot Chocolate was on my mind while making this.

 

Processing note: Contrast enhanced with DXO filmpack (AGFA Scala preset) and a homemade Daidoish adjustment (exposure, contrast, and clear-view increased; blacks increased and whites decreased in curves to clip blacks and highlights).

  

Hi everyone! This item now avalaible at Mainstore!

I hope you all like it ♥

This molded plastic clown fish subject is less than an inch long, and was photographed for Macro Mondays. The background hand gives a sense of scale. Several images exist in the pool with similarly large hands:

Processing note: This camera needs noise reduction and I used DXO prime. Analog Efex Classic Camera 5 preset made the image vivid with pleasant color shifts.

やとみちゃんの提案を参考に、金魚人外を描いてみました。

元になった金魚は「地金」。わが家のオランダ獅子頭はとにかくごつい。

地金ちゃんの可愛い感じが出ていれば幸いです。

このイラストを描く上で一番悩んだのは鰓の位置だなぁ。

 

I drew a goldfish the outside of human world based on Yatomi-chan's suggestion.

The model goldfish was 'Jikin'. The Dutch lionhead in my house is just too tough.

I hope the Jikin-chan looks cute.

The thing I had the most trouble with in drawing this illustration was the position of the gills.

I generated a Steam account to gift from and decided to make this playful image for its thumbnail. I liked the stars when viewed full size.

Looking for a different perspective on Roseville's flower sculpture. A pinecone was selected as a dark foreground element so that proper exposure will force the background into overexposed or high key lighting style.

 

Processing note: applied color efex filter : vintage, saturated fade to the high key image.

Some stapled Dinkytown phone poles have embedded thumbtacks, push pins, screws and nails. I prepared this as an alternate for Macro Mondays. It is a backup because it looks too much like an image submitted recently.

 

Processing note: This camera needs noise reduction. I used DXO prime. Silver EFEX high key, framed preset enhanced contrast and exposure.

Despite the temperatures it was most difficult to get some kids off the playground. One parent incrementally offered improving swag to force the issue: "Let's go home where it's warm. How about a snack? Hot chocolate? Fresh zucchini bread?" Hot bread was the winning offer.

As the firmament spins around us

and seasons change,

Think on this:

People come and people go,

the outrage on the media

is both constant and

everchanging.

We can endure. We can flourish.

Or we can whither on the vine.

For Utata's weekend project "Dots"

'The Face' wall hanging sculpture in sheet steel and copper (hair). Approx. height 20".

I got out just as the fog was clearing, but managed a few low-contrast shots before it was gone.

 

Technical trivia:

The camera was in EXR mode, providing reliable focus but only JPG files. The image was enhanced in Topaz Restyle, blending the palette with one from a high contrast cross-processed image chosen to accentuate the depth of the image.

Utata/s weekend project (March 17th-30th 2018) is "lines."

 

Rothko came to mind initially but it may be more accurate to imagine Barnett Newman's thin vertical stripes.

Just humming Jimmy Buffet while looking in the mirror:

"Oh Lord, Its hard to be humble..."

 

Utata's big project for 2021 is Utatascapes: Places in the world or in the mind.

 

Self portrait with mask.

Oh, what did you see, my blue eyed son?

 

One of Utata's projects has me thinking of framing images with a title from a Bob Dylan song. To make it more challenging I used a vintage JPG shooter and freeware Olympus viewer 3 (tilt, curves adjustment) and Aviary (brightness, contrast, Indiglow effect, color correction) to emphasize the splash.

 

Utata's summer project 2016 invites us to go... something. I added this to the "go nuts" category, which is for anything, because I tried a different, convoluted processing path.

Just missed intended plane of focus.
