Here's the image that has threatened to fry my CPU multiple times in the past week. It's a Hockney photo, named after David Hockney. If you aren't already familiar with his work, check out his website. He uses multiple (usually ~50+) images to create a unique form of photo collage. I have neither the time, the patience, or the skill to create a collage like he does, but after being assigned this as a photo project for my high school photo class, I tried my hand at making something resembling Hockney's work. The below shot uses around 30 images; I lost count before I flattened it. I appreciate any and all C&C on the image, so those who like to critique get ready for some fresh meat to sink your teeths into.
And just a note, if anyone didn't decide to click on the link to Hockney's page, and know nothing about him, understand that this is not a panorama. There are supposed to be inconsistencies in the exposure and colors, and seams are meant to be visible. Also, the image is not supposed to be squared off, and the white space is normal. One of the key elements of this project is trying to escape the normal rectangular form and instead using a shape that goes with the subject itself.
Thanks,
