this is a combination of three photographs in our local shopping centre/very small mall which has a coles and about 10 other shops .. clothes, butcher, two other cafes, toy shop & a michel's which is like a franchise coffee shop with mocha/hot chocolate/pies/cakes/muffins/sausage rolls/etc ..
the smokey look was flaming pear/glitterato ..
this is another one i did with the same photographs ..
this is the same man, who is a complete stranger, with the image reversed ..
This is a very busy picture but I can't stop looking at it. The flaming pear/glitterato makes it seem like this man is in some sort of factory setting.
flaming pear? glitterato? I need to know what that is 'cause I really love what you did. To me, it just translate so well the crazyness of everyday hustle and bustle! i love it roz!
At first glance I was thinking this was some sort of print shop with tons of pictures hanging around. Then I read your comments & went back to actually check out the shot! This works! It is busy but I think it works great! Sort of conveys the whole Christmas rush almost of mad crazy shoppers & the unsuspecting victim of the camera! haha, nice job & definitely keep experimenting :)
Roz, you're really off the charts with your learning curve on this processing! I am really impressed and enjoying your adventures. This is really something!!! LOVE it! I'm going to look at the color one next.....I smell a fav!!!
I like this one - it reminds me of looking a kaleidescope. The other is kind of cool, but I enjoy looking at this more and the B&W gives it a bit of an old fashion feeling.
