2024-10-22 Spooky Moody

With Halloween coming up lets try “Spooky” “Moody” photography. It does not need to be necessarily a Halloween themed image. Spooky or moody alone is fine as well.

Please keep image uploads at 1600 pixels wide or 1050 pixels high

    Ghost mansion. I built the paper model ghost mansion with our Cricut computerized cutting machine. I then photographed it in my basement studio with a single flood light. The ghost was bought at the Dollar Store. I then generated the background with AI in Photoshop then blended the original photo of the ghost mansion into the background. I used a neural filter twice to harmonize the colour of the original mansion image with the background. I had fun creating this composite.

    That’s incredible Henri! So well done. The mansion is gorgeous. You should be doing backgrounds for video games!

      Thanks Frankie. I did not create the background. Photoshop’s Artificial Intelligence module gets the credit. I do get the credit for the house.

    Went to Dash of Doom at Glenmore park. Thanks a lot to Frankie for the info about the event. The photos were not spooky at all . Not sure it they meet the criteria

    ISO 100, f/22, 1/60. Taken in bright sunlight to get the tree shadows. Conversion to black and white, cropping and light adjustments in Apple Photos.

    Moody scene in Confederation Park. ISO 1250, f/22, 1/125.

  9. Ron says:

    Since there are not too many postings so far for this challenge, I thought it would be ok to break the rules by posting a 3rd image. As I was leaving Confederation Park this spooky creature jumped out of the trees at me. Just enough time for a quick photo as I escaped it’s grasp. ISO 320, f/22, 1/125.

    Spooky mountain beech forest at Arthur’s Pass, South Island, New Zealand. Such bizarrely-shaped, moss and lichen-covered beech trees made Tolkien’s Fangorn Forest come alive in the Lord of the Rings movies that were largely filmed in New Zealand. Photographed with an iPhone; the photo was sharpened in Topaz Photo AI, and the colours and black point were enhanced in Apple Photos.

    I will add a few images as well since there are not too many images posted. We could hear quite a bit of screaming this Halloween in our neighborhood. The display on Silver Ridge Drive is growing scarier every year. Here are some of monsters on display.
