Re: PESO - Leap, fauxlarized

It's less tricky using digital curves adjustments (rather than
development timing and turning on lights), but it still requires
plenty of fiddling around. Finding the point where I want to apply the
knee where positive tone mapping becomes negative is the hardest part.
But I realized that I can use dodge to shift different parts of
the shot into and out of negative and suddenly it starts to get even
more creative!

Thanks, Ann!

You got the solarization effect down nicely -- I've got mixed feelings 
about wheter or not to clone out the stool...


I did some solarization back in the day when I was first doing my own 
developing and printing.. tricky stuff - sometimes

it worked nicely sometime not so much :-)

I really appreciate that, Dan. Thank you very much!

Dorrie "Tattered Sweater" Mack is a definite fave with everyone. I was
scheduled to shoot with her again just before the Second Wave began to
scare everyone and scuttled my plans. She's my #1 muse.

I think that works quite well indeed!

I scanned through your collection of nudes and semi-nudes again, and it is
simply a Marvelous collection of superior work.  For some reason, Return of
the tattered Sweater is still my favorite.  I think it is the whimsey (and
of course the model).

PESO - Leap, fauxlarized

2020-09-19 Thread Bruce Walker 
I was recently reading up on Erwin Blumenfeld and his Man Ray
influenced work inspired me to try playing around with solarization. I
chose an unedited shot from 2018 work with dancer Joy Kidston. I used
Photoshop Curves to simulate the darkroom effect, thus
"fauxlarization".
