Day 36: Meh?
Meh? Galway City’s coach terminal, located at the Fairgreen. This is good, but it could stand to be so much better. In hindsight I wish I had done more to capture the periphery of the building so that I wouldn’t have to crop so closely.
Day 35: Then On.^3
Laziness manifests itself. I have created a ‘corrected’ version of an image from yesterday. This version has been properly stitched, sharpened and cropped. My ultimate intent is to have this stitch printed in a floor-to-ceiling format (an eye-popping 27×64 inches!) and mounted in my hallway. When I have a hallway.
Day 32: Gratuitous Contrast Week begins now!
I missed yesterday. I was at the bottom of a pit of depression and self-loathing, so the photography had to wait. A serious pit of depression and self-loathing. I was on the teetering verge of cutting myself out of an effort to feel something. #mang
Okay. Well, welcome to Gratuitous Contrast Week, a week of contrast taken to gratuitous levels! My opener is the underground car park at Galway City’s docks complex, behind the Harbour Hotel.
Day 29: Exposure win!
Can I say ‘win!’? Yeah, I can. I’m ordinarily humble about my photographs. I see them in terms of their flaws; softness, blown highlights, uneven horizon, blur and underexposure are what leap out of me when I review them. Recently I have been working on the ‘exposure’ part of matters by trying to nail down correct exposures in difficult situations, such as catching the sunset through a grove of trees.
In this instance I’m happy to say that I believe I’ve nailed it.
Day 26: Texture #2
I’m forced to admit that I am disgruntled by the top two-thirds of this image.
