Fall impressions (cont.)

Juano

Today I found this completely overexposed pic from last fall in Colorado and worked on it a bit. I think it looks like a Japanese-style painting.

I'm glad you decided to mess with this one, Cristóbal. I think it's a stunning image. Well done, buddy.

Juano

Many thanks Tom. I was going through my files looking for another picture and saw this completely white thumbnail, opened it, lowered the exposure a lot and saw the origins of this.

My neurotic aversion to scenes that are slightly tilted gives me problems with this one. But I like the ingredients and the general approach.

More than once I've found that overexposed shots worked well as high-key black and white images.

Thanks Don. Here's a revised version a bit less tilted perhaps.

Cristóbal...

Once again, your artistic flare is spot-on.

I believe you are on target with the thought of the similarity to Japanese screen print.

It would be interesting, IMHO, to see this image broken in thirds and displayed as a three-panel image photo.

Enlarged and copied onto fabric, this image could easily be used in making a Shoji Blind.

Well done and very creative.

Juano

Interesting idea! Thanks. I will give it a try.
