Taken for "Themes & Challenges: Creative Use of White Balance".
I spotted this sunset reflected in the reservoir last January, and liked how the clouds were framed by the branches. Messed around with shutter speed some in order to try to capture some of the sense of motion on the water.
Here you see two different white balances: "as shot", and then with the "tint" in Lightroom 3 moved from +8 to -102 (as shown here). "Tungsten" just made it blue, which didn't appeal to me for this scene, but the lurid green tint with the altered WB, coupled with the shape of the clouds, gave it an "end of the world as we know it" feel to me.
this weeks theme was clutter. This house is abandoned and if you look in the windows all you see is junk everywhere!
This image is part of an on going personal meme, that has gotten out of hand...

Last weeks theme was horror. This is my interpretations, no editing has been done to them in photoshop (other than scaling).
After exploring the theme masculinity through the lens of history, stereotypes and sexuality I decided to explore how the theme related to me specifically. Looking into masculine traits and reviewing my past projects, I decided that the trait 'competitiveness' most closely related the theme back to myself. Competitiveness is something that has subconsciously driven a lot of my work, placing myself into competition with the people around me and aiming to out-do or impress them while failing to impress myself. The Covid-19 lock down has helped me to separate from competing with my peers and instead aim to compete with myself. Reviewing my past projects and subsequent final pieces highlighted to that no shirt I had ever attempted to construct was wearable (despite a shirt being a relatively simple garment, I had always rushed the process in some way that led to simply wasting materials) and the fit and finish of every bodice I had ever attempted to construct was off. I set myself the challenge of completing both a shirt and a bodice in a way that could represent personal success.
The construction process is documented throughout my blog and took around 3 weeks not working solidly. Though before I've managed to cram the construction process of my final piece into one week I'm happy that I took my time to do things properly. I am pleased with the quality of the garments I've produced and I think they pair nicely together. Of course I could have tried to make a whole 'head to toe' ensemble but focusing in on smaller personal goals instead of something more impressive has helped me reach personal success.
Though I am happy with my final piece, I think the project feels like an anti-climax. The lack of a final exhibition and the amount of ideas/media tests I dropped, leaves me feeling I should have more to show after the months of work. Now the pieces are done, I realize I definitely would've had time to include some sort of surface decoration. As with many of my past projects I think the lack of decorative elements fails to represent my full capabilities. If I was to redo this project I would try to incorporate more of my technical experiments into the final piece.
