the blues

Winter is long, and there's so much blue ....

"ornamental"

Digital double exposure, same image (closeup of a glass Christmas ornament), twice, once flipped both horizontally and vertically; blended in normal at background = 100%, layer 2 = 50%.



"landscape in smoke"

Digital double exposure: the Columbia close to Northport, WA and a closeup of smoke from in incense stick, blended in normal second layer (smoke) at 34%.


"rain on pines"

Attempt at "impressionism" right out of the camera. Closeup of a pine branch by the river, in the rain, evening light.

Beautiful once again.

I think I'm coming back to this after the christmas crazyness.

"Landscape in smoke" is an absolute winner... the smoke creates such an interesting frame to the landscape behind it - you've positioned it such that the areas of most interest in the landscape fall into the areas between the smokey swhorls and that just works for me. I really like this very much!

Monday's vase


In my kitchen window

I was reading an article by Patterson in an older PhotoLife magazine last night, and he mentioned that it didn't matter to him "how" the final product was achieved (in camera, as a slide sandwich, in post-processing), so I figured I could try with one picture again.

This one I made yesterday morning - vase in my kitchen window, backlit from reflected light (reflected off snow in the backyard). Layered background and 3 copies of the picture, copies blurred using motion blurr, and blended at 50, 33, and 25 in normal. Comments appreciated as usual.

After the pause

I took some time out from photo impressionism. I think I'm getting back into it. Last night we were in church, and this is the result:



Composite of three images, two way out of focus, one more or less in focus. All made at ISO 1600, ambient light, 105mm macro lens at F2.8, aperture priority.
