Body Of Art

Facebook is letting me make friends again. It banned me for four days. Apparently I was making to many friends.

Body Of Art so far

17.11.11: Started a Facebook page to network the project. I hate the facebook layout it so difficult to navigate. Like a teenagers messy bedroom. Started making lots of friends then facebook bans me for four days !!!! A site dedicated to making friends doesn't want me to make friends. Bizarre.

17.11.11: As promised macfixer fixed the mac. Back on track.

16.11.11: Just preparing to printing out some more letters to send out when the clicking hard drive on one of the macs finally gives up. Most is backed up. Spoke macfixer explaining the urgent need to get it sorted he makes time an will fix it tonight. Great.

Man with two dogs. Graded in Lightroom to accentuate the blues and browns. I wanted to give it a "Bleach by pass" look.

26.02.11. Taken around 18.30. A series of four. The last one is taken looking North East. I like the clouds in this one. Red filter. Lightroom grading.




26.02.11. The days are getting a little longer. Taken at 18.15. Great clouds.

12.02.11. The same kite surfer was having a great time. A couple of shots with a warmer grading.
12.02.11. Kite surfing. A cooler grading on this one seemed to be right.
12.02.11. Surfers heading to the water.

12.02.11. Surfer heads home.
12.02.11. Late afternoon light. Lots of water sports action. Surfer on his way out of the sea.
7.02.11.  The sun is lost in the heavy clouds. Red filter pumps the contrast. Taken around 17.30 tide going out.
4.02.11.

4.02.11.  It was a perfectly windy day for the kite and windsurfers. Though not so great for photographers, It was actually a very grey day. Lightroom worked its magic again. It is so fast and easy to grade with. Like grading moving film in telecine.
