There pretty good... Just curious as to what the photos are of...

[Black Jesus]

Thanks for the reply.

They are basically photos of ice cubes that have been manipulated in photoshop. But I was going for more of an abstract thing. I like taking pictures of easily recognizable things and turning them into something abstract that makes you sort of wonder what you're actually looking at. That was the idea anyway.

[Eutrophika]

That is fascinating... wow I still cant believe thats ice cubes... post more of your stuff..

[Black Jesus]

More... these aren't as abstract.

i love the abstract ice cube stuff :D it made me wonder at first too. I love the colour in the images.

reminds me of some of the stuff on the fragile covers.

[Black Jesus]

yeah, that was definately an inspiration. in fact, i was watching the dvd and the images on the screens during the middle of the concert are what originally inspired me to do these. it's cool that you pointed that out.


more to come...

These are fantastic! I was grossed out at first when I saw them. I was sure they were close ups of dead bodies floating in green liquid :dead: Now that I know they are ice cubes I'm even more disgusted! What were you drinking?! These are great, you should post a tutorial on how you are creating these.

You inspired me to try some for myself to see if I can figure out what you are doing :)

[Black Jesus]

hehe, thanks for the comments. they aren't all ice cubes (all of the ones in the first post are), the last one i posted is part ice cube, part crumpled up toilet paper (not used, of course... what were you thinking?)

i've been side-tracked lately, but i definately plan on doing some more of these. hopefully i'll have some to show in the next few days.
