Using Props – Apr 18

For this prompt, I wanted to be a bit different and use digital props, rather than physical ones. I wanted to create a more abstract, surrealist piece of art, so I used a four-second shutter speed to create a blur of colors from around the room. Then, I used inverted “curves” in Adobe Photoshop, as well as an array of other adjustments to hue, saturation, brightness, and contrast, to create a very abstract image with bright colors and vague shapes. I like this photo because when you look at it, you can just make it look like anything you want. If you stare at it long enough, it could be a face, a car, a lake, anything.
