The rehearsal

... in using textures, that is! Thanks to Stuck in Customs, I had the tools and inspiration yesterday to discover this area of post-processing superimposition that I have never tried before.

Taken in White Rock Theatre, Hastings.

It was a really uninteresting pic until the some drastic experimental post processing, and the textures, came out to play....

A while back I did some texturing for a design project and this reminds me a lot of the texture I ended up using. I might have to try it with photography. Thanks for the inspiration.

Funny how the textures almost makes the seats and steps look like they are painted on a road surface or similar. Love the vintage look, and very nice use of textures.

Firtly I get so excited I could pop when I see you in my contacts page :)

And this is so beautiful. What a perfect setting for this idea, perfect outfit, pose and execution too. And that texture is very finely handled here. This is just so warm.

As much as I love all of your work, its always wonderful to see when you move into an area 'new' to you.

'encore' :) X

That's your best one in a while, in my opinion. Looks like an old Edwardian "Carte Visite" of some long-forgotten Music-Hall diva.

I think the processed photo is great!

I would find the original very interesting if it were cropped just below her butt. The lines of the stairs, the stage, the seats, with a simple set of bare feet is interesting to me.

As usual - first class work! Impressively beautiful

slurv says:

I love the photo, but I feel the texture is a bit dominant and makes the final result a bit flat. I think if you toned down the texture in the areas of your body and the lines in the upper stage areas, the picture would get a lot more feel of depth. Good work though!
