Isolation Photo Project, Day 39

I didn't go outside at all today. The air was damp, and the sky was a dark, moody overcast mess. Right now it's raining hard outside. This evening, Bhavna and Kiran went out for a walk and got caught out in the rain. They arrived home soaking wet.

According to the Zyrtec app, the pollen count was high today. This morning I opened the window near my work desk just a crack to listen to the birds while I read the morning tech news. I completely forgot I had the window open and it wasn't until 6 PM when I complained to my wife that my eyes were itchy that I realised that my allergies were to blame.

I continue to experiment with twirls and radial blur features of Photoshop.

Isolation Photo Project, Day 38

I learned a new technique which I have used to transform a mundane image of a bowl of oranges into something I find fascinating.

I first read about this twirl technique on Hanne Siebers's blog. Dina learned about the technique from her camera club, The North Norfolk Photographic Society. She has used it to transform a photograph of Klausbernd into a twist. I loved the idea and looked at this video to which Dina provided a link.

What do you think of the results? It's fairly late when I started this, and I am tired and ready for sleep. Hopefully, I will find some time to write a text and image tutorial on how to achieve this.
