Museum of Civilization
Canadian Museum of Civilization, soon to be transformed into the Museum of History.
This image depicts a laundromat operated by a Chinese worker.
For those who have never been there, the second image is the grand hall as seen on entering the museum.
Behind the National Gallery is this thing – One Hundred Foot Line (2008). (The sky is a bit manipulated.)
Didn’t come down in the wind storm, so I guess it’s anchored properly.
Twirly
Camera club outing – topic – twirly.
This is an art piece at city hall – a distorted door, etc.
On suggestion of Mark, a fellow clubber, & remembering Freeman Patterson’s penchant for it, I set a long exposure and twirled the camera. Not enough exposure, so I added a flash at the end to brighten things up.
Spiral
Spiro-giro.
NIK Efex #6 to convert to B&W.
Added an image from Day 297 in the otherwise white centre of the structure.
Adjustments using masks to play with tones, etc.
Maman
A beautiful warm, sunny September day. No clouds, not a hint of rain.
Mamman, the spider outside the National Gallery, has an egg sack hanging under her belly. A close up from beneath reveals a sinister Spiderman image.
Gotta love art that keeps you looking.
Waiting for the bus
Cassandra & Mike have just finished their part of a mural in Gatineau. It was done in collaboration with some other artists to grace the wall of a bus access ramp.
Here, our heroes await the local bus and wonder if it’s on time – or ever going to arrive.
Poster
Couldn’t get out yesterday, so posterized another image from the studio workshop session. Model shot against green screen & copied to this background.
At a local studio for a workshop. Part of the stuff was using a green screen for image manipulation.
This is the result of my first attempt to really use photoshop.
Reflections
A water reflection.
Cropped to isolate the face, NIKed, contrasted & sharpened to get the effect.
Interestingly, a close examination of the pixels gives it a look like an image of the stars.
Physics in action.
Driftwood
This driftwood looks like a dinosaur or dragon when viewed from the right angle. Maybe the late night Friday shenanigans help this impression. Had a bit of trouble replicating what I saw in the cold light of day.
