Environmental Art Studio and Conversation with Nik Botkin

Living on Earth is analogous to renting an apartment, if we are bad tenants and trash someone else’s property, the landlord will eventually evict us. Mother Nature, God, or any other concept one may have as the ruling entity of the structure of life as we know it could be thought of as this proprietor. That being said, how can we possibly expect anything other than eviction with the way we are treating another’s property?

I think the lonely looknig cable and plug would have suited a black and white treatment and an empty sky would have reinforced a sense of desolation and abandonment. It is also a nice comment on nature vs man-made.I think whether people will like the filter or not will be a matter of personal taste. I think filters work best when they enhance what is already there, i.e., warm or cool an image, intensify colour that is already there, solve white balance issues or balance out lighting when you have big difference in exposure of the foreground and sky. More extreme effects are tricky to do well but worth experimenting with from a learning standpoint.I would definitely have gone for black and white, again purely a matter of personal taste. I might have considered a slight gradient mask to add interest to the background and added some grain to introduce texture??.-= Jo Garrettb4s last blog .. =-.
