Bike tyre revisited

After my further developments of the wheel image I decided to review and develop some previous images. I worked on the bike image that I posted in January. In particular I really liked the visual echo effect that was created, and the dramatic contrast between the black and the white areas

Wheel development

I have been continuing to develop the 'Wheel' image from a previous post using some new digital tools. 

Monochrome Geometrics

I have been experimenting with some new digital tools and ways to explore and develop images. I created this series of abstract compositions comprised of geometric shapes and patterns. They were all derived from the same original photograph of a stone wall with plants growing along the top.

Wheel

I created this image by exploring and developing a simple photograph of a car wheel. The strong shapes combined with the shattering effect really appealed to me.

I explored different tonal values and contrasts (below) before I completed the final image above.
