Degraded Image
Here is my original photo. This photo was taken in
the Mexico area of Epcot, at Walt Disney World. This
photo was taken with a 35mm disposable camera, and
then developed onto a CD-ROM.
For this slide, I decided to print the original photo out (1),
then take a picture of the printed photo onto a digital camera
(2). I then downloaded the photo back onto the computer
from the digital camera.
Printed version of
original photo.
Basically a
picture of a
picture!
For this shot, I photocopied the printed image from
the previous slide (3), then scanned it back onto
the computer (4). There is a large amount of blue
in the picture now.
The
building
that once
looked
orange and
yellow,
now looks
lavender.
The green
color from
this tree,
now has a
mix of blue
and indigo
colors.
I scanned the photo into the computer, then edited this image
in Photoshop with a technique called “firelight” (5). I then
took a picture of the edited picture with a digital camera
located inside a digital cellular phone(6). I took the photo
while it was still on the computer screen.
This is the
computer the
photo was on
when I took the
picture with the
digital cellular
camera phone
While still on the computer screen, and
after scanning the photo, I edited it in
Photoshop with a technique called
“firelight”. I then printed out the photo
and cut the image and re-scanned it back
onto the computer (7).
Image has
been cut
into seven
separate
pieces,
then
placed in
order,
back
together.
For this photo, I took the “firelight” image and opened it in
Microsoft Photo Editor (8), and then applied a technique
called “stained glass effect” (9). Amazing how a photo can
go from this-----------------------------------------------to this!
