It resists being seen as just a 2-dimensional panel, with its imposing rivets and gold hues. The detail really gives it life.
Ina, that's great you got the plug-in for the Holga simulation. I also wanted to let you know about another one called Virtual Photographer by Optik Verve Labs. Just Google for either one of the names I mentioned if the following link is not allowed: http://www.optikvervelabs.com/
This Free plug-in converts from color to b&w, and simulates film grain, and different filters for b&w. So instead of just turning off the saturation, this program just renumbers the values to b&w and none's lost. Lets you experiment with green, red, blue filters for b&w. What I do is convert to b&w and then do the Holga simulation afterwards. Enjoy!

Thanks for the info, Mark, I love free filters! The B & W vocabulary is one that I'm reluctant to learn, mostly because I find color too seductive, although I have used desaturation a number of times. I'll get the filters, and seize the right subject. As for the holga filter... I still need to mull over it.

Yes absolutely..the Holga filter takes time to figure out. For a little while I'd just click on the dice, and then play with the sliders. If you've any questions, just email me: tenrunir@yahoo.com

Oh my, I had just stopped thinking about it for a moment! We have had 2 incredible days. The cafe has been packed to the walls almost constantly. There were a lot of locals who were so happy to see it reopen. Things are going incredibly well.
We've got a lot of work to do working out some kinks...sure glad we decided to be closed
Sunday's and Monday's! Thanks for asking...when things calm down we will work on some sort of a photo for all of you who have been cheering us on! :)

Lovely colors and structures Ina, great composition but I'm sure the engineers that constructed the bridge had no clue what beauty they have created. Elegant and well toned, no surprise as it takes artist to express that. Cheers, n.j

Ha-ha Gustavo! La reina del oxido! :-) This is actually orange paint, but I have more pictures of rust, I'll dedicate one to you when I'll post it (might not be very soon, though - right now I'm playing with sepia). Thanks very much for both comments! Un abrazo and a great weekend! Ina

Hi Ina,
Unfortunately, that might be the case for a while. I'm hoping to keep up, but I might have to trim down my associates list a bit...we'll see. You (of course) will remain among the top of the list!!!
Your encouragement means a lot to me...Thanks!

Amazing texture! I love the abstract shapes/patterns as well. The detail and sharpness on the right side is marvelous. I also love the colors and weathering, multiple attempts at paint, etc. But above all, for me it's the abstract lines and the texture. Great job Ina! You have a real urban edge here lately!

Quite different view that demonstrates how a slight change in your view angle transforms your vision of the same reality. The faded and shy presence of trees in the very background with the rest of the structure makes this shot less abstract. The main thing is the impressive structure with its colors: neat and right-angled oranges with the chaotic and randomly distributed black spots...
