Finding My Emotive Self

Posted by dale on May 26, 2008 in General, projects | 12 comments

This was a little project inspired once again by Chica’s Photo Projectz site. The challenge was to

“Take a photo you like… and play around with it in your favorite editing program to come up with a heavily filtered look that you feel adds to the image and leaves you with an entirely different (when compared to the original), but enjoyable, result.”

I chose an image I took a while back. It’s an emotive portrait. I started fiddling with my filters and sliders in the GIMP. I ended up using a very heavy dose of the oil painting filter followed by some extreme unsharp masking. I liked the warm rich color and the heavy shadow effect. Hopefully this edit has enhanced my emotive effect.

littleredpanet has donated hosting and basic set-up for the anasazi – one people, many stories project. They are working to create a large online repository of cultural origin myths, legends, and stories. I have provided a wordpress install and a customised header image. I will endeavour to create a custom theme as time permits.

If you have any spare time and want to assist and or if you have any stories you wish to share with the world, please leave them a comment.
