Right folks, July's topic, as set by Dvorak is "This Cannot be Real"
On things that are just too real, and on those that aren't. At all.
Standard rules. Any kind of heavy post-processing not only allowed but strongly encouraged.
The Whiteness. The perfectness.
Wouldn't of course, because I'm really and totally happy with the one I love, my girlfriend. But would. Since this is a white icon, not a real person. Like she would. Which is ok. Totally ok.
If you turn up contrast until it hits the pure decision of becoming either 0 or 1 - then you leave the realm of the concrete with its endless shades, then you enter the realm of pure abstract structural beauty. Taxa surviving now for millions of years. Pure structure within time.
"Untitled (Night Light)" by GoatFoam.
Wandering around through an unknown landscape in a country that is strange to me. Lost and lonely. A cheap hotel bed waiting somewhere but forgotten. You're somewhere in the woods. There are lights.

Noooo, it's always like this in the summer - people are either out getting burned, or staying inside to get out of the bloody heat!
I've got a couple planned for this month, and will get round to them before the 25th - I hope! I just need to test out the Orbis that RiK made me get to make one happen

Ha! I don't recall holding a gun to your head. In fact, I do believe you text me about it first..
You did, you did! You posted a picture of Simi (?) on FB and said somehing like "Everyone should have an Orbis" - like a dutiful student, I got one (thanks in part to the very nice discount a certain Mr Olpin arranged!).
It was indeed, by the way, a very good call - fantastic piece of kit!
Passing Starlings - wanted to get this high contrast enough it could almost be seen as an illustration.
