Streak Club is a place for hosting and participating in creative streaks.
we went to one of the most unique pieces of art I've seen yet. it's a massive plot of former farmland now filled with forests, fields, lake and creek, and giant concrete sculptures of distorted figures. an architect's labyrinthine playground.
it was heavily overcast and a bit foggy, then later downpoured on us. i don't think black&white was a good choice given the flat lighting (the majority of the sculptures didn't stand out much against the grass or trees without color), but i found my pictures of muffy taking pictures here to be compelling.
something compels me to point the camera at the sky even without color, and every time i actually get to editing them i go "ehh whyyy". we know why, the sky is beautiful. but its hard to capture.
i think i still prefer doing tonecurves in rawtherapee then local contrast in darktable over agx :p #mymethod (theyre pretty similar in end result but my way just feels more predictable and consistent. using rawtherapee to create the shape of the curve then exposure tool works like the pivot and the local contrast stretching finetunes the curve and lets me choose whether i want a grayer more detailed image or a more smooth and high contrasty image which is like the black point white point settings i think but just. wayy more intuitive imo)

Woah, that really messes with my sense of scale!
