This week at Uni we didn’t have a project. Instead we had Photoshop training so we could pick up some of the basic manipulation skills. Even tho i have worked in Photoshop before, i’m quite happy i’ve done this. It allowed me to broaden my knowledge of what can be done in photoshop, and produced some cool results. Take a look yourself.
- The colours here have been altered.
- A CD cover manipulation, consisting of around 4 images
- Originaly he was standing on a white background
- A panorama picture of a wineyard i’ve been at. Nice contrast with the burned mountainside.
- 2nd Adam chilling at the student center. Damn smokers.
Next week i am going to the Indaba Design conference, which everyone here loves a lot. I’m not sure why yet but i’m anxious to find out soon. If there’s anything interesting there, i’ll write about it. There’s also a big school assignment connected to the conference, in which i have to write an essay on if there are avant-garde movements in contemporary South African arts. Wish me luck

I decided to start making photographs again with this lady and my other one (a olympus mirror reflex finder) and to develope the films at home because i found some developing can-thing …the only thing i need is the chemicals
If you have any experience with analog developing write me a message on msn or so!!
