A pair of rusting barns out near Madingley village (the same barns as in yesterday’s picture).
This photo isn’t that exciting, but it was something I spent a little time on trying to understand the impact of colour shifts in Lightroom - the nice distinct sections of blue sky, rusty barn, and green grass meant I could explore the what happens as I shift the HSL of each colour and what that does to the scene. In turn, this will hopefully help me say predict how a scene might react to a given film stock or simulation.
Which is a round about way of saying it’s not that interesting a picture (though I do like the composition), but it’s here as it’s a thing I worked on so is interesting to me :)
I was listening to the recent interview with Sean Tucker (who I’d not come across before) on the Contact Sheet podcast where he talks about using his Instagram account as a scrap book rather than just a selection of his best pictures, and I think that’s also what I do here to some degree. Whilst I’d like everything to be awesome, you can’t post a picture a day and keep to that quality bar. But I can try and make them all interesting in some way, even if that means the nugget of learning is in the prose below.
