shades of grey

"I only work in black... and sometimes very, very dark grey."
-- Batman

having misplaced my phojo once again i decided to play around in Lightroom with the various filters for black and white to see what happens when applied to the primary colours... i disliked the results of the presets, so i mixed my own... ;p

a did a really hideous collage of the various experiments, but i just can't bring myself to post it...

update: i redid the collage and it isn't quite as hideous... posted here:

Thank you for your continued patience... really hoping my phojo resurfaces soon!

But ... but ... I have an awesomely bad collage coming tomorrow (think: all 9 colored filters applied to weird fruit-made face - I'll give you a day to ponder that one). Post it!

Your subsistence level phono is quite remarkable. Imagine if you were to do mind-altering drugs such as caffeine?! I am forcing my photomojo to return. We're not speaking, but we're in the same room.

You should write a book about your artistic endeavours whether good result or bad!

@riverlandphotos well - you're doing better than me... mine has abandoned me completely... i'm expecting the "dear jane" letter any day now... ;p

@archaeofrog NO ;p

[Hope D Jennings]

I love seeing your process Norhy! Hope you post it.:)

[Kerri]

Great shot

I think you should post it... I too am playing with filters probably too much. Love the quote...it fits you perfectly with a ha!! :)

The vote is in favor of posting it -- so you might as well. I thought this one is interesting because of the negative space shapes you created in the white.

Chin up, doubt you're ever very far from a blinding shot...

[jayn]

And I liked this one :-)

[Jani M]

lol, makes me think of strangling someone... squeeze tighter and see how the face turns darker and darker ... :-D

[aurorajane]

Interesting post and lovely title! Nice.

[Ken "Tasian"]

Your title got my wife's attention...I liked the Batman reference...;~) Thanks for the interesting post and pic!

[Kitti Nelson]

Please post - it would make me feel so much better that you had done something "hideous" - although I'm betting it isn't! - I am thinking that you have b&w running in your veins.

[Call me Joe]

Cool shot--- and pls.don't lose ur Mojo,Superwoman !:)-

[Shanne]

@janim depends how cross I am with my so-called line manager as to how much my mind lingers on strangling people

[☠northy]

@shannejw @janim interesting... Must be Freudian... My frustration level at work is very high right now - long list of things and folks making me crazy ;)

[Jocasta]

I think you phojo is just pretending not to be there - I really like this

[Jackie greenfield]

Your pics are so inspiring, hope you post it ! :-)

[Katia]

@jocasta I totally agree! :)
