The camera club project was to produce 10 prints on a single theme, displayed together in any format, so I made a book, using the laminator and different types of paper, to provide me with a reference document. They were bound together using a Zutter binder.
Obviously you won't be able to feel the texture or see the different print effects of the papares, but the images may entertain.
Conte Cook
Conte Crayon and Sandstone texture seemed to be a good idea. I took this while waiting for the moonrise (I was an hour too early, or the moon was an hour late!!)
Late Booking
Still waiting for the moonrise, but the sunset was good too. I liked the lines of lights.
West Pier Sunset
Another sunset on another day, using a very wide lens and texturiser to bring out the sky and water textures
Wy Knot
Just a straight shot, taken for the reflections - it likes a high gloss paper.
Mary's Moon
This is what I'd been waiting for - believe it or not, it's a straight shot, using HDR
Easter Foam
Taken last year on a typical bank holiday, when you could hardly stand in the Northerly wind, never mind take a photograph. The sea had been whipped into foam - it was a good day when we got back home!!
Tate Hill Pier
Days when the clouds are like this have to be grabbed. I used HDR to bring out the textures and detail.
Chieftain Reflections
Traced and threshold were used. I really like this one.
East Side Warped
OK, so I played with this quite a lot - the abbey was added (from a different perpective) and so was the seagull. They've all been traced and blended and then warped ever so slightly. It had to have a tint, but it's still monochrome.
West Side Panorama
This panorama was made by stitching five images. The original was in colour and I used a tracing technique with a threshold layer. I think it works well in monochrome too.
