Let it run the duration of Kirlian Isles III (by The Flashbulb off the album Kirlian Selections) and saved out prints every 100 frames. Also saved the camera view into a 100MB video.

Its not super interesting. I actually like the first couple tests more than this one, but I decided to go ahead and post it with the video so those that are interested can see more of the process. This image is the end product of 34 overlapping layers.
Processing: Crop (x=17, y=35, w=5395, h=3585)
Processing: Photometric CC
Processing: Histogram Transf. (mid=0.003, lo=0.009, hi=1.000)
Processing: Background extraction (Correction: Subtraction)
Processing: SCNR (type=0, amount=1.00, preserve=true)
Processing: Saturation enhancement (amount=0.20)
Wanted to see how well Processing would handle 3000 copies of overlapping pngs. I photoshopped out a set of 7 bird silhouettes and each flocking object grabs a random image from the set and rotates it according to its x/y angle. Voila, Hitchcock!
Next step is to use more controlled silhouettes and a larger variety. If I start to feel ambitious, I might model out the wings and body separately so I can recreate a rudimentary 3D simulation of a flying bird.
I was born and lived in this area 60 years ago have been walking around the Streets Of North Kensington W10 and Notting Hill Gate W11 to see the changes that have happened since I left 40 years ago.
Walking Through My Past
part of a personal project- i need to boost the brightness a little, contrast too, dont like that washed out white. yes, clipped highlights and shadows, i know, sue me.
Deep in thought as to which bunch is appropriate for the occasion or which one he could afford. Union Square, San Francisco, CA
And here's the original, out-of-the-camera shot (minus a slight re-size crop) of my previous upload. Scroll back and forth between the two to compare. Don't think post-processing plays a significant role in the results you see on Flickr and elsewhere? It's a necessary evil most of the time...
We chased this cloud from the Columbia up on the hilltops... and it just kept getting bigger! more on the story on previous photos... and processing help exchange on the one in comments... thanks everyone!
this shot is perhaps half an hour earlier than the pano shot below
Two Cobra soldiers. One may or may not be Ms. Mars, which would be kind of funny, since I was actually looking for her to A) find out when she would be wearing what outfits and where, and B) on behalf of another photographer who produced a book and was looking to have those in it sign near their picture.
Same picture as the one next to it, just processed differently. I'm not sure which I like better.
First up-- Apologies on this one; I restarted my computer shortly before working on this next snippet and in addition to losing a lot of settings in Photoshop (thanks Adobe) the restart apparently also lost my slower setting on my time-lapse program. So this is way too fast and I don't know how to slow down. Since it's so short, it's a silent one. Don't have enough time to do a second one today though, so tune in next week for a more proper one!
Oh, technology!
Pretend you're a hummingbird-- then this will seem more normal.
