Description
Fading everything to black and blue
You look a lot like you
Shatter in the blink of an eye
You keep sailing right on through
-Counting Crows
-----------------------------------------------
Since the weather refuses to lighten up, I am forced to produce a sombre-toned photograph. I hate the winter, just look at that dark veil of cloud...
I know I recently did an umbrella piece, and I know umbrellas are ridiculously over-used in conceptual photography. There is a reason for that though; umbrellas are awesome. There should be a stamp in support of umbrellas... (someone make one!)
Anyway, this is my brother modeling for me once again, as I apparently have no friends.
Photoshop for levels, channel mixing, dodging/burning, noise reduction and cropping.

Wow, I think this just might be my favorite umbrella piece on DA. I love the surrealism in it. Kind of reminds me of Marry Poppins. (:
Haha, I don't have friends either. Pretty much every picture of mine containing a person is a sibling.

I'm in love with this.
Umbrellas are a bit cliche... but... you've pretty much got me stunned.

Thats because I took the photo at the peak of his jump, so he actually was weightless.

Seems to have worked.
