In The Machine ...
For this week's Sunday Challenge for which we were asked to create a triptrych.
However, it was made slightly more difficult because we were also instructed to shoot something from 3 different angles and then to convert those images to monochrome before then using them to create the final triptych.
Now, I've got to be honest a triptych for me would have been challenge enough, but to find a subject that I felt I could shoot from 3 different angles, which would work effectively in mono left me pulling out much of what little hair I have left.
And I quickly came to realise that my mind's eye is clearly better suited to seeking out photo opportunities in colour than it is those that will work in mono, be that black and white or otherwise.
In the end, after many, many trials, this is what I ended up with. It's a series of shots of a shower hose which I tied up into a knot before shooting it from various angles.
Initially, I was struggling, really struggling, to get a series of shots without capturing the ends of the hose, but eventually I decided to work with them and try to use them in the overall design to create the effect of a pair of eyes.
The final triptych was then processed in Photoshop and instead of going down the black and white route I elected to convert it into cyanotype, which I thought just lifted the design somewhat and gave it a slightly more sinister edge ... that's if a shower hose can ever look sinister!

Well done young Paul! ;0)
autofantasia club has replied to PaulOClassic©autofantasia club has replied to Clyde SostandTop marks for the processing as well. This would be amazing printed large and framed!
autofantasia club has replied to Keith Burton clubAs for getting it printed large, now there's a thought! ;)
At first I thought it could be one of the Sesame Street characters, then like Val, I saw the owl and then I thought oh oh an alien! lol The overall tone used for the monochrome really does make the hose take on depth and interest. This looks great on black and enlarged. Hope you frame this. :)
autofantasia club has replied to Clickity ClickThanks also for the fave ... always appreciated and a delight to read your thoughts! :)
Also reminds me of an owl!
autofantasia club has replied to JanVery cool idea and result - I had also problems to take my shots from different angles resp. with fixed focal length
