Greetings!
I am really interested in your feedback and this is why I am starting with this. I'd really like to know how do you find this image in terms of editing. It was digitally desaturated after scanning the original. Some more contrast was added and the look changed a lot, giving the heavy autumn-colored piece some graphic qualities. I might find this new way of looking at my own picture interesting but I don't know about others' opinions.
While I am waiting to complete the verification process for my NFT Showroom account and the chance to offer minted limited edition art, as I planned even before I learned about the dApp, I keep on wondering if I should go with this plan...
I have another one in mind, at first. But I hesitate. Maybe I will just publish it in color. This one, on the other hand, is just experimentally edited for the purposes of this post which is, again, to find if people find that kind of meddling with my own work a good thing.
It may turn out I am not the content creator suitable for that dApp but who knows...I have to try. Whatever happens, I shall follow my goals.
Back to the Black and White editions...
As a photographer with experience that is slowly but surely turning into a long one, I recognize the advantages of Black and White images. Yes, they do not just lose color. They switch spectrums. They go to a dimension where other qualities than saturation begin to matter. Color photography is not necessarily an upgrade. It fades with time, for example. An experienced collector and curator of physical copies once said in public so. He would avoid buying color photographs because they would not age as well as black-and-white ones.
When it comes to digital copies, though, that does not exactly apply.
Why wouldn't I paint it in black and white, then?
Perhaps, I am not confident enough I am able to see in black and white as an artist. Only as an editor and as a viewer. When taking photographs of landscapes, yes, I can imagine what reality will be turned into. But when painting, I first need to make some colorful reality and then lose the colors.
But I talk too much.
Your thoughts matter more here!
This post is also a way to crowdfund a project called Western Shores. A board game thing about Vikings exploring the unknown.
We're currently on the illustration stage.
