Description


Just playing with overlays and tints in Photoshop. The underlying photo was one of several taken on a local bushwalk last Friday. Even the most innocuous patch of ground can be seen as interesting in its own right - depends how you look at it! Detail never ends, it just goes on and on... Thanks for taking a look, it's much appreciated :-)

Detail never ends, yep, and your overlay tint play shows that with a lot of depth, love it.

Details often overlooked ... it takes quite some skill to make a photo of the ground this fascinating!

I really like this, you have created a very imaginative work from the simplest of elements. Excellent!!

Fantastic!....agree with cbender....all the layers and very interesting textures work together to create a wonderful feeling of depth.

I totally agree. Ballard said something similar; that everything is infinitely interesting given the power of the imagination, (or something very similar). Super muted colours here. Seems like a moonscape composite seen from a space probe. (ps. Got your sounds okay! Eager to work with them right now if I could :-)

Really effective interplay between the geometric shapes & the photo Jim, gives an impression of infinite depth & detail to explore.... hard to tear my eyes away! Nice one ; )

I like what you did here Jim! This way I pay a lot more attention to the details than I would have done on a plain beach shot. Wonderfully creative and a pleasure for my eyes!

This speaks to me of time. All things on the earth, from flesh to rock - all become sand and dirt, they become the soil. Given time. Every grain of sand has a million memories. Very good work here :)

Well, you guys have amazed me... I just knocked this up really quickly yesterday evening and didn't consider it such a serious piece! I never expected such a response as this, thank you :-)

It would be interesting to see the rectangle move around randomly in animation similar to the animanted gif I uploaded.

I admit I had considered it for a moment, but it would detract from the point of the exercise: the focus is not meant to be the graphic devices themselves but the areas of ground underneath that they reveal. The graphic devices are there to isolate these areas so they can be viewed as "landscapes" in their own right rather than just looking at the whole.
