82/365 - Gingered Torso

Gingered-torso-600

A departure tonight from both my "Self Portrait March" and my self-imposed rule of only posting my daily 365 via my iPhone or iPad.
Today's 365 Project post is one of my favorite works to date. "Gingered Torso" was created entirely on my iPad, with photos taken from my iPhone, using several iPad applications. The details of the applications used, including a QuickTime video of the entire process, is available on my main website at http://rsr.me/makingtorso

I'm also thrilled to announce this work was selected for the "Contemporary Photography in Hawaii 2011" juried exhibition and was awarded the Juror's Award. Information on this event is also available on my website link above.

32/365 - Something Different

Photo

We shipped one of our vehicles to Maui today. Somewhat ironic that it will live full-time on Maui before we do... I took an iPhone photo of one of the shipping containers with the intention of using it for today's 365. But I was so bored with the image that I threw it into Percolator, then Iris Photo Suite, then iDroste, and finally TiltShift Generator. I'm not sure what the result is, but it's lots more fun than just the original photo of the container.

18/365 - Man and Machine

Photo

A re-working of one of my iPhone self-portraits using Brushes, Percolator, and Iris Photo Suite on my iPad.

It's a crazy amount of fun to sit down with the iPad, not having a single idea of what I want to crate, browse through my photos, and just start adding photos, layers, and textures.

2/365 - Reflections

Photo

I fully intended to just pull a previously created image tonight since it's Sunday and I just spent the last 3 hours manually pressing almost a gallon of tangerine juice from about 100 tangerines I picked from our tree today. But I just wasn't inspired by anything I've previously created sitting in my iPad's photo album...

So, I grabbed a photo I took of myself in our outdoor shower a couple months ago (that I've never liked and almost trashed several times) and started playing with it in Percolator, Iris Photo Suite, and Brushes. Same "app recipe" used in yesterday's post. The door to our outdoor shower is mostly glass and on sunny days acts like a mirror. There are 4 flections of me in the image above but only 2 are easily visible.

1/365 - Something New

Photo

This self portrait was taken with the back-facing (low resolution) camera on my iPhone 4. Transferred to my iPad where I used the "Brushes" app to paint, erase, and combine it with several of my other iPhone photos that had been processed with the "Percolator" and "Iris Photo Studio" apps. I've been thinking about doing a "365 Project" for a few months now and thought I'd start on my birthday back in November. But my birthday came and went and after my friend Chris (http://clnichols.com) texted me today about his 365 Project, I took that as as a sign to get mine rolling today as well!

You can read my self-imposed "rules" (more like guidelines) below. And check the Tags in each post to see the iPhone/iPad apps that were used to create each image. Not yet sure where this will go but I'm sure it will be an interesting experiment...
