Challenge: Windows (the glass kind) (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark III
Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Date: Apr 20, 2014
Aperture: 9
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 1/400
Date Uploaded: Apr 20, 2014

 Being stuck at home (for the most part) means getting creative with what I have around me. That is a good thing!

In this case, I wanted to head downtown to grab some shots of some cool window reflections. But I couldn't. My windows are kind of boring, so instead I added the creepy human touch.

For this, I had to remove the screen, and open the window to avoid ugly reflections. This means that there is no glass in this shot (oh no!), but at least there are the blinds. Hopefully this is acceptable :)

A bit of editing in Aperture, then Topaz DeNoise, then Topaz Clarity gave this the added menacing touch.

The window here is more implied than evident, but done in such a strong and simple fashion that, for me at least, it's of small note. The person's look and three fingers are perfect. The success of this image hinges on the clarity of whites, and that's nailed too.
