was creeping around a marina last night
it doesnt look like this at all in person
the dither goes silly on this one (first image dithered gif second image jpg)
dead end of mall. behind a fairly busy intersection. we sat on those little tables staring forward at the plastic wall for about an hour. many passersby were confused, concerned, scared, or just plain amused. we didn't really mean to commit to the idea for so long it just sorta happened.
28mm 2.8 manual focus k mount its capable of being p sharp
surprisingly few of these left unedited in the backlog. i take this exact shot so often. i'll prbobably figure out a place online to put them all next to each other someday
the final product is nothing what the preview window looked like. experimenting with masked sections of posterization and sections of dither
and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.
coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it

@0x35c these shots were both 1 second exposures, handheld, at 1.7 aperture and 200 ISO (my camera's base ISO, which I never leave). I kept the camera steady for most of the second, then swung it hard near the end. I took like 6 shots doing this and these two were the most pleasing.
In post I gave each shot a custom tone curve to deepen the shadows and brighten most of the rest. Topped it off with some RGB curves to give the image more of a blue/orange contrast. I do my edits in rawtherapee. c:
i genuinely wonder how did you manage to get everything clear while moving the camera for the lights ? (i'm new to photography)
the lights look like scratches on the right, i love that effect! sick colors too
