"At Gunpoint" second in a series of dark digitally altered photos.

This photo is intended to make an impact, of how it must feel to be

looking down the barrel of a gun. In order to do this, I altered a

black and white photo using photoshop. The gun is meant to be the

focal point, and the man blurred somewhat. It is sopposed to look

sinister. Did I succeed?

You did! He does look sinister and kind of decided.

 

Just that textures on fingers ask for some attention, distracting viewer very mildly from the muzzle of the gun.

This sure works for me. The gentleman is perfect, a no-nonsense John Wayne look alike tough guy.The gun positioning is just right. The detail in the hand just enhances the intimidation effect. I would love to know how this inspiration evolved.

The three circles in perfect alignment with the lack of any other geometrics makes the photo striking. The viewer toggles between the points of the barrel and darkened iris that lends well to the desired effect.

Great shot! Even the small thumbnail is compelling enough to make you stop and have a close look. Not a fan of altering images, but when it done with this sort of great effect, I have to acknowledge that! Cheers,

truely astonishing. it displays a deep uglyness personified by the eye, and how it lines up with the sight and the barrel (kudos on composition) the image, being an inverse, brings out the emotion on his face. this is atruely wonredful shot in all the shocking and horrible ways.

way to cool.
