from december
the colors on this shot were really good, but i feel the monochrome carries more emotion
i like the slight off-center angle and the general balance of shapes, but the top and bottom bother me. In the uncropped shot i get the very bottom of the door frame for a few pixels and it produces a distracting jagged line, however cropping it out now the lines of the door lead your eye out of the frame, and the lines running along the top are in a similar situation, they distractingly converge with the edge of the frame. if i was maybe a foot further back when i took this shot the edges would've been much more manageable.
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
