want some? by northy

want some?

for the 5+2 theme week 6 - trash (!!)

http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/18882/5-2-theme-week-six

etsooi'd to the nth degree... overexposed in camera and then overexposed again in LR5... declarified all but my eyes... converted to black and white in silver efex and added a white vignette plus a couple control points in an effort to clean up the muddy background (it seems i failed here)... added a dark green split tone to the shadows in LR... then added some dark contrast and a smidgeon of fog in colour fx...


very cool, a bit creepy!

I agree with Kate. Cool and Creepy.

Very creepy, do you have severed limbs in the bag. Amazing processing, I can only follow bits of it !! Impressive though
August 17th, 2013  
Grossing me out
August 17th, 2013  
Cool shot
August 17th, 2013  
definitely a serial killer vibe here :)

@janim ok - so obviously this didn't quite turn out as intended... i had been going for alien visitors and social commentary on our disposable society... but i'll take serial killer too ;p
August 17th, 2013  
@northy hahahaha you should've made a shiny alien garment for yourself from that garbage bag :-)
August 17th, 2013  
Awesome job!!! Funny about the mask... this week I had an idea to use one in a shot, just haven't done it yet.
August 17th, 2013  
Very interesting shot. I've got to be honest, it kind of scares me a little. Ha ha!
August 17th, 2013  
That is very serial killer like!!!
August 17th, 2013  
haha must agree... a little creepy. No thanks, I don't some.
August 17th, 2013  
Definitely creepy, but interesting!
August 17th, 2013  
Fabulous!! Did you find that mask online? Just what my son needs for his art project!!

August 17th, 2013  
@northy Cheers - bit of Internet searching required maybe!

August 17th, 2013  
This is so cool and very intricate editing...
August 17th, 2013  
Love this. Domestic scifi.
August 17th, 2013  
for the second week, someone has pre-empted my shot. Its cool, cause later today when I post, I think I might add a little "inspired by Northy"

;)
August 17th, 2013  
♥ love the shot!
August 18th, 2013  
Why yes I do thank you very much. The dude in my latest post wants some too.
August 18th, 2013  
I see a tired housewife, doing chores around the house after facial. :-)
August 18th, 2013  
The mask makes is creepy but the overall effect is, erm, very interesting.
August 18th, 2013  
I'm not going to sleep tonight ;-) Very cool!
August 18th, 2013  
A fav for me! I like the edit and the mask of course! I also like that you explained how you did the edit. Part of my intention with this project is to learn from others.
August 18th, 2013  
Love this creepy/creative image, but I don't want to think about what's in that bag!
August 18th, 2013  
Cool mask. Great entry for the theme...I failed to come up with anything again! xx
August 18th, 2013  
Super entry for the 5 +2 theme! A bit creepy....but in a good way
August 19th, 2013

Good grief, how'd I miss this. Jason!
August 20th, 2013  
You are incredibily talented and creative! Wowsers on all your shots this week!
August 20th, 2013  
Yes, I have to go with creepy too. It is an effective shot though, to evoke such strong emotion. Credit for that!
