…what folding space looked like. Well, maybe not always, but for quite some time. And I’m sure it looks nothing like that strange-honking scene in that awful Dune movie… Or maybe this is a Base Ship in orbit above Caprica… Or it could be something else, something of the actual world, which wouldn’t surprise me much, …

365.131 Ohne Titel
Not much to say about this one. It took a long time, largely because I kept looking for a narrative photo, rather than looking for one that I enjoyed looking at. I knew—but didn’t really consider—that I would need to find the narrative and then make the photo, rather than the other way around, and …
365.130 ce n’est pas une peinture
If not for that bit of lens flare in the lower right, this could quite easily be a painting, or even a pastel sketch… Granted, this isn’t straight out of the camera, but it’s not very heavily processed either: Aperture’s built-in RAW conversion Exposure +.44 Black Point +2.43 Brightness +.06 Contrast +.12 Definition +.57 Saturation +.04 Vibrancy +.28 and some …
365.129 …at daybreak
I gave up on trying to create a panorama out of images like this… The 2009 13″ mbp is just not up to the task of creating 19,000×13,000px images. Actually, it will create the empty file with relative ease, but each image takes about 4 minutes of frozen computer to appear in the file, and …
365.128 Attack of the Fremen
(I’ll pick up a copy of the book this weekend…) I’m suddenly having fantasies of becoming a creator of book covers for sci-fi novels, specializing in apocalyptic/bleak future sorts of things, but capable of pulling off some fantasy-appropriate imagery as required… This is strange, as my fantasies of possible futures are generally less fantastic. I’m …
365.127 Apocalyptic, perhaps
Another Macro shot of the Collier Kaleidoscope, and another day where I have very little to say about this particular shot. One thing that did cause some photographic consternation today (and the bulk of the day was rather consternating… I’m not sure why, but it’s drawing to a close, so gogo): Photoshop CS5.5’s inability to …
365.126 Otherworldly
I went to Wikipedia and looked up the various planets referenced in the _Dune_ series, didn’t find any that made reference to multiple suns, realized that, having never read any of the novels, and not seen the film since 1995 or 1996, that I’m not anywhere near Geek enough to reference an obscure Dune planet …
