half-n-half

No focal point, but is it possible to make something interesting.

Comments and critiques are welcome.

Hi Mandar! I've played a bit with it. I would be glad to hear what you think of it.

 

I think the tones on your version are nicer than those on my version, but anyway I wanted to share the experiment.

 

I've added a little bit of gaussian noise, which gives a little impression of sharpness (I've read an interresting article about this) and after that I've sharpened everything. Instead of doing 1 strong sharpening pass, I've done 3 small sharpening passes. Finally I've rotated the color wheel to obtain the bluish tones. The result, Imho, is an image that looks like old B&W film "turned" blue. The noise and added sharpness

gives more a blurred look than an out of focus look.

 

If you ask I will delete it ( I'm an understanding person :) ).

 

 

Joe, thanks for your comment and suggestion for anither version. I like the idea, now I need to think about what you said about sharpening being acheived using controlled addition of noise.
