I was out taking macros of flowers in our garden. This was one (red hibiscus) that I felt could serve better editted. So, I used Picasa2’s filtered black and white to create this effect. I intend to take a sharper, colored shot in the future.
I like the darkness and induced shadows. The grainyness amplifies the mystery and intrigue. Would this effect be Lomo? I am uncertain about what technical term can be used here.
Of course, you may have a different opinion of this image. So, let me know what you think.
Okay, the jury’s in. This is quite possibly the lowest scoring picture that I have put up so far.
Score Me! : 27.5/50
Critical Masses: 49.5/100
Score Me! in Detail: 47/100
I still like this image and the effect. It might not be very focussed but that makes the old film effect more evident.
