We are still getting amazing weather here in New Zealand in May, so I wanted to explore a few corners on my photography skills wish list. I hope to explore more abstract pictures in May and June this year.
This short and sweet selfie is our friend Thomas.
Thomas paused in the shade as were taking a walk in the garden. As I turned I liked what I saw and quickly took a photograph. I loved the shadows and single darker spot so I experimented.
How could I make the photo look different?
I turned the photograph black and white in Affinity Photo and think the results are a lot of fun. It does almost look like an abstract.
There are strong diagonals with some more decorative uprights casting shadows, with a quiet spot in the shade for Tom who is having a quick wash and brush up. What do you think of Tom’s quiet portrait?
