Complex process underway. Early adults lay eggs which hatch into these larvae (caterpillars) which then pupate into a chrysalis where they transform into a butterfly or moth. Along the way lots of preditors are prepared to take advantage of them. It's a wonder to me that they every succeed. But happily they do!

Recently upgraded my hard drive and storage - and lost all my chrome bookmarks, including links to various processing techniques. So, whilst searching around for what I thought I had, I came across one where you motion blur the landscape/background - and then re-add specific things, such as the walkers on the sand in this image I took a few months back. I added the shadow/reflection as well.

Quite pleased with the result. Could do with some more tweaking - but I'll have a go at that with another image another time.

The Hazard Vipers are an unfriendly bunch, that's probably because unlike Toxo Vipers these guys actually like their jobs. They ran out of subjects for turning into Zombie Vipers, so instead they grabbed up the first unsuspecting soldier for "treatment". He'll never even know that he'd wish that day had been his last!

In this image I've tried to experiment with several ideas:

1) I've taken the motif of the first ever photography, "View from the Window at Le Gras," created by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce between 1826 and 1827 in Saint-Loup-de-Varennes, France

2) The theory of creating colour images after James Clerk Maxwell's three-colour method first suggested in a paper on colour vision (1855).

3) The application using a carbon print - an image consisting of a pigment, rather than of silver or other metallic particles suspended in a uniform layer of gelatin invented by Alphonse Poitevin in 1855.

4) The use of the carbon process, as it was was later adapted to colour, through the use of pigments, by Louis Ducos du Hauron in 1868. The carbon process can be used to create colour images by using a three-transfer process with three seperate negatives exposed through red, green, and blue filters. These negatives are then printed on separate sheets of carbon tissue, each containing a different pigment (cyan, magenta, and yellow). The resulting images are transferred one at a time onto a final support, creating a full-colour carbon print.
