Halloweeny ending

· 2 Comments ·

I haven’t been as diligent with the Tourmaline’s October Challenge as I wanted to be but, you know, life … But I had to post a final picture not just to end this challenge but to remember her Halloween Challenges of Octobers past. This particular Halloween photo was taken last week when I came across a house with a front yard overflowing with Halloween decorations (not all that common in Germany). In a town called Seligenstadt of all things (a possible translations might be “town of the blessed ones” or “Beatified Town). AI on my phone did the rest.

Memories in cinema mode

Actually, it was only a Super 8 film (yes, I’m THAT old) and this photo stood on a nightstand next to a bed with a murdered me in it. It’s the only time I starred in a movie (okay, a super 8) and I got the part because the first year students had to choose their actors from the second years.

I photographed this with my smartphone from an old discolored black and white photo and enhancing it with a mixture of sepia colouring, softening the contrast and using a vignette frame.

My computer looked like this (almost)

that’s why it was in hospital for a week. Incidentally, the reason for the problem was me trying to transfer my photos from the phone (mainly taken for this challenge – !) to the pc combined with a faulty connection slot. I live with a fairly good computer fixer but he cannot make spare parts magically appear, hence the hospital stay.

The effect is called “paper” and yes, I relied A LOT on paper during the last week.
