Photography Cool texture
How to create a cool background texture in 3 easy steps
1. Find a river
A river or a lake on a windy day—water with small waves.
2. Find a building
A building reflecting in the river/lake, that is. More lines in the architecture, more intricate the texture. A sunny day helps.
3. Shoot the water
Shoot that building’s reflection in water. Play with the picture, change the colors, get crazy if you feel the urge.

Photography Burst
While playing with the pictures above (large on black here and here), I thought about writing something about the melding past and future, about time stretching like a grotesque accordion, freaking enormous and grossly out of tune.
Until I saw the glistering white tops. One in the painting and one in the picture. I stopped in bewilderment, trying to get my mind around this like when you bite off more than you can chew—choking, unable to move jaw, unable to spit all out.
I shot these pictures thousands of kilometers and a couple of years apart. Fucking long accordion!
