Photographic experimentation

[meccahi]

And other such permutations...

Hrmm.. I really should take a photography class.. along with a few million other classes of things I want to learn...
These are 3 images I was playing around with today.. I think with the program I have, and my limited skill that this is the best they're going to get sadly.
I really need to learn more..




First one I tried my damndest to make look like a sort of Maxfield Parrish painting. It's not what I'd like it to be.. but in comparison to the original photo it's miles improved..





An Experiment with OverExposure..




I actually kinda like this one...



Hopefully this week I'll get a few people over to take pictures of them in chainmail.. I really need to get cracking with better photos..and cataloging all of my designs and pricing them out properly and blah blah blah.. in other words... I need to get off of my ass and get things done.

I must say... hurray for caffeine.

Thank you!..I appreciate that.. I still wish I could have done with the still life the picture that I have in my head.. but if you saw the first one ( before I did the cropping and color adjustments and such) you'd probably laugh. It was really really bad.. Grin

I still can't wrap my head around the fact that there are women who put that amount of make-up on every day.. but it's fun to play with.

Mmhmm. I am actually now in the habit of dolling up for show days, as it widens my appeal to the generica masses. I don't do it heavy, just enough to emphasize that whole ideal.
I am not fond of wearing it. I did it perpetually in my gothic 80's childhood, pancake white face with red or black lips and big psychedelic egyptian eyes (spirals, extended lines, trippy goth chick.)
Someday I will have to show you pictures.
