8/17/2011: Experiment in Form and Color

When this posts, I will be somewhere between London England and Rutland Water, up on the edge of the Midlands where they hold the Great British Birding Fair each year. My internet connections over the next few days will be sporadic and totally out of sync with most people who read this bog, so I am preparing a few posts ahead and scheduling them. I may, if I get a super shot in England (it is a working trip and time will be very limited), replace one the scheduled posts with something more spontaneous, but we will just have to see about that.

This is one of a series of experiments…it started out as a photograph, but it is not that anymore. I have manipulated it in PicSay Pro on my Xoom Android Honeycomb tablet…in a process most akin to digital doodling. The original is along side here. PicSay Pro allows you to mirror, twist, squeeze, and otherwise distort your image, as well as to apply a wide range of effects from Lomo to HDR to Gritty to Glow. I did not keep track of the particular set I used on this image beyond the obvious mirror. Like I say, it is closer to doodling than to any thoughtful or intentional process.

You can see a growing set of these at my Experiments gallery on Wide Eyed In Wonder.
