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.
Another Process test, this time an attempt to create a simulated drawn technique with aggressive editing. Worked in Photoshop and ACR, no advanced painting techniques used, mainly ACR.
Inspired by the traditional art of Colin Carter
Two photographs of a Beckman Coulter BioMek FX robot - now decommissioned - layered with some DNA sequence and whiteboard scribblings. Robot processed with a shape blur. There are also some colour-burned oblongs drawn over the top.
Sony DSC-W130 pocket camera for the main robot photo - 1/50th sec., f/2.8, ISO 160.
All of this makes this an ideal candidate for Sliders Sunday, I think.

ry fish processing is an ancient, cost-effective preservation method that removes moisture through sun-drying, salting, or smoking to inhibit microorganism growth and extend shelf life. The process typically involves cleaning, degutting, washing, and sometimes salting fish before laying them on racks, taking several days depending on weather and fish size.
The most common method, where fish are laid on raised bamboo racks (vertical or horizontal) in the sun.
Often combined with drying, this improves preservation and flavor, commonly used for larger fish.
Imparts flavor while drying the fish through heat.
Dehydration/Driers: Controlled environments like cabinet, tunnel, or solar tent dryers are used to ensure higher quality and better hygiene than open-sun drying

Henry McWhorter is my great-great-great-great-great grandfather; as is John Hacker.
The Henry McWhorter Cabin served the Hacker's Creek community as home, church, school, and post office. Today it serves as a reminder of the courageous pioneers who settled the Central West Virginia area.
The McWhorter Cabin is thought to be among the oldest "family dwellings" in central West Virginia. Constructed in 1793 along the banks of Hacker's Creek of the West Fork River at what was then called West's Fort (now Jane Lew), it served as church, school, post office and community center as well as a dwelling place for Henry and Mary (Fields) McWhorter and their family.
In 1927 the cabin was moved to Jackson's Mill State 4-H Camp where it was placed on what was believed to be the original Jackson cabin site; and, though it is not an exact replica of Stonewall Jackson's boyhood home, it does typify a rural early 19th century (West) Virginia homestead. .
Today it is "preserved as a memorial of the stirring and tragic days of the West Virginia border," and as a shrine to which people of all ages may go to "gather strength and courage from the memories of the rugged virtues exemplified by their pioneer ancestors 'round cabin campfires. ."
Henry McWhorter was born in New Jersey in 1760. While living in Orange County, New York, he enlisted as a minuteman at age fifteen to fight in the Revolutionary War. After his term of service expired, he volunteered six more times in a 22-month span. Afterwards, he lived in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where he married Miss Mary Fields. In 1786, the couple moved to Hampshire County, (West) Viriginia. Three years later, Henry sought a home on McKinney's Run in Harrison County.
In 1793, the McWhorters again moved, this time building this 18' x 24' log cabin near West's Fort where Henry, a millwright, had constructed the region's first large gristmill. The mill operated for more than a century and provided cornmeal and flour for a large portion of the population of the region. A sawmill was added later. The mill was destroyed by fire in the early twentieth century.
The McWhorter cabin was much better than the average pioneer cabin of that day, being built of hewn logs and having a substantial wooden floor. The windows, too, had small panes of glass instead of the customary greased paper. The immense chimney of stones and clay was constructed inside the cabin as a precautionary measure against the attacks of Indians. It took in the greater part of one end of the cabin. In the great fireplace were placed the large irons called dogirons upon which rested the huge back logs.
An iron crane was swung from the center of the fireplace upon which hung the immense iron pot where much of the family's cooking was done. The baking was done in a heavy iron pot set in the hot ashes, with more hot ashes placed upon the heavy lid.
On the right side of the huge chimney was the built-in cupboard, and here were kept the few dishes and cooking utensils carried across the mountains from the old home. On the left side of the chimney was a stairway leading to the upper room where the family had their sleeping quarters.
On one side of this upper room were two small windows, not more than a foot square, through which the inmates could fire at the Indians should they come too near.
Three generations of the McWhorter family were born in this cabin during the forty years they lived there. The family was forced to leave the homestead in 1833 and return to McKinney's Run after a series of security debts left Henry financially embarassed. It was there that Henry died in 1848.
The log homestead and the mill were sold to Edward Jackson, a cousin of "Stonewall" Jackson. The cabin remained in the Jackson family for many years. In time it became the property of Mrs. Walter Neely, a Jackson descendant, who in 1927 decided to remodel or tear down the old cabin to build a home for her son who had recently married. She finally decided to turn the cabin back into the hands of the descendants of the original owner and builder, on condition that the cabin be removed and preserved.
With leadership provided by Miss Minnie McWhorter, a great-great granddaughter of the pioneers, the cabin was moved to Jackson's Mill and dedicated there on August 14, 1927.
The cabin was re-dedicated by the McWhorter Family Association to the state of West Virginia on July 24, 1993, in observance of it's 200th anniversary with more than two hundred persons present for the weekend event. A McWhorter Family Endowment was established for the cabin's maintenance and upkeep. A time capsule was buried under the front step of the cabin on August 14, 1993, during the Eleventh Annual Hacker's Creek Pioneer Descendants Gathering. It contains momentos of the anniversary celebration and other items reminiscent of the year 1993. It is to be opened in 2043 by a committee appointed from the family's younger generation in 1993.
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.
I'm obsessed with networks, links and relationships. Links across time and space but specially the ones we create as social beings: Parenthood, love, friendship.
How can I reflect in a visual piece the deep relationship with my family? my answer is to transform photographs in networks of lines and points, employing Processing to build Voronoi graphs based in the difference in brightness intrinsical to each image.
Then I create "maps" juxtaposing side by side the voronoi graphs and build a network, a set of pathways that relate one with each other in an "organic" way.
I'm not a programmer, I'm sure a person with the patience and the knowledge will create something more spectacular or complex. But for me, at this moment, this simple network is an interesting way of show what lies below most of my photographic work.
Thanks for your time. I you can plese visit my Portfolio of photography or my Facebook page.
