The Beast on di Road

Hail to the Hive!

I really enjoy messing about with images and experimenting with various means of image manipulation and this community gives a great opportunity to do just that. So today my chosen model, if you will, is the beast of a trick that parks across the road of an evening.

I’ve been meaning to pop out and grab some shots and this morning was a perfect morning to do so with the sky and air recently refreshed and cleared from the heavy rain last night.

Now as always I offer up 3 different images of each photo. Colour, colour splash and black & white. Please let me know which ones worked for you as I always feel some mediums work better than others with certain shots.

Now each style works in its own right but…

Personally I am loving the colour splash shots with the shotsmof the beast taken from the road. I like the contrast of black and white with the solash of colour from the dawn sun rising.

But the black and whites are good too.

With the shots from the air, taken w8th the DJI mini 2 drone, I just can’t pick between them.

Each works so well for me and I love the pattern, patchwork of the area with the truck in the street. The mix of textures just speaks to me.

I’d be interested to hear which of the images and styles works for you. As I said before I love this community for offering up a platform to showcase the different styles of the same image. I find it a lot of fun and offers up a different reason to be posting on hive when I don’t necessarily having anything to say 😂.

Excellent pictures! I feel like the full BW of the truck looks awesome, but the one with the yellow patch of sky has a little something extra. I assume you used a drone for the other one, it's almost like an oil painting. Quite amazing how the BW version feels so much better than the color one, somehow!

Yup black and white captures a mood or maybe creates one all of its own more like. The drone shots do have that oil painting look about them now you mention it. Hmmm that’s probably why i like em so much.

The colour splash with the truck looks really fantastic. Also the drone shots, as you said the “patchwork and textures” is really appealing actually. Love it!

Wow friend, those huge amounts of "Red Stripe" 🍺😂 have awakened in you another level of artistic capacity!📷... And you have a drone! 📷...

I've loved seeing this one, all that chromatic expression makes it an improvised, creative and eloquent like "Picasso" shot!

Thanks @thekittygirl. Someone said the drone shots were like oil paintings and they reslly do have the vibe with the textures. I got a bit lucky withnthe ground level ones as I’d been planning to capture shots of the beast for a few weeks now and rewlised after that the dawn shots gave me that band of colour against the blue. Quite accidental but worked beautifully

Hello @scubahead

I like the complete black and white with no color on truck. I'm not sure why but the black and white seems to add more emotion and feeling to a photo.

I like the drone picture with blue and gold because I can see the details better with the blue and gold colors - this is more clear. The other 2 pics of gold and black and white looked like a mess of things but not sure what they were.

Thanks @adcreatordesign. I’m a big black and white fan but I kinda like the color splash on the truck image where it’s not fully in the frame though. With the drone shots it’s interesting playing with different variations to pick out details. That toy is proving to be too much fun 🤩
