New tricks


Sadly, for various reasons, I can't talk about what I've been photographing this week.
So instead there's a link to the work of a photographer my friend Peter Payne alerted me to....here
Dave Hill's photos have a very stylized look to them and I've tried,(and mostly failed), to create a similar look on the pig photo on the right here. To me it looks too grainy and photoshoppy, but that may just be because I used a scanned film image rather than a digital one to practice on.
Sorry it's a pig photo again-not planned, it just worked out that way. I'm not obsessed with pigs, honestly.
This one is a rare breed Middle White which I photographed way back in 1994 at a farm near Preston. I've only just got around to scanning these negs in and it's a bit of a lucky dip as to what comes up as I go through my archives in order to digitise them and put them in my stock collection.

It's fantastic, hysterical, that you have chosen to modify the photo of the pig (or be it a Middle White).
The next face of Apple? I see the perfect image!
