This image was taken around 2:30 near Eureka dunes. A texture screen at the film plane was used in an attempt to create a pictorial effect. Did it work? Does the image work?

This is great Joe! Perhaps my only negative is that the grain pattern is a bit sharp but hardly a show stopper. What kind of texture screen did you use if I may ask?

A tracing paper cut to 4x5. I actually have this image without the texture screen and all I have to do is print it. It has all the detail.
thanks everyone

split tone printing, I'm finally able to make some sense out of my image library
Re: Surreal Interpretations
I think this definitely gives the "surreal" affect - I like it! I wonder what one of those swirly lenses using this effect would look like....try it out!

This is one of my favorite images for it's mood and simple composition. This took about 6 hours to dial it in Photoshop CS2 utilizing 9 layers or so.
Image asthetics aside (I do like it, but...) you can't judge an image from a dinky JPG on a monitor. I understand there are limitations on posting images in the forum. But maybe (perhaps you already did this, I haven't waded through all the posts) you could have a link to a higher res version that would be easier to evaluate on a monitor.
All those hours of Photoshop (or wet work for that mater) can be shot to hell by web image hosting. :mad:

The piece is presented accurately in the .jpg above from a macro perspective.
I'm in the process of putting a web site together. It is taking some time to finish but should be available by the end of this week.
