5 May 2004

A quick follow up to my earlier colour shot. It was suggested that I try a mono version, well I did and I wasn't happy with it, even with the contrast cranked right up I couldn't get any impact out of it. So, despite my intentions to keep away from effects today, I stuck it into Paintshop Pro and added a touch of 'Chrome' to give a solarised effect. I now quite like it, in fact I think I prefer it to the colour version.

I am very interested to know which version other people prefer (click on 'previous' to view the other one), so please leave comments.

The yellow one does it for me - in the mono it loses the 'is it three-dimensional?' look.

I still prefer the color one!

I've looked at both and this one gets my vote. Somehow the bright yellow gets all the attention in the other one, and the form comes second. Here the form becomes the main issue.
Well done.

I like this version. I found the color distracting from these curious lines and textures.

I liked the colorn better but this is a very fine experiment!
