 Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.


Took this for a black/white photo class. The assignment was "personal statement." I'm a pretty big Creation buff, so this was an obvious choice for me. My dad's hands with a bouncy-ball globe that I had to color in so that each country wasn't a different shade of gray. Put a black sheet over him and my mom held it in the back so that it wouldn't have creases that I would have to edit out later (i'm kinda lazy).

a lot of people will probably say it's too grainy, but oh well....

processing:

- levels
- histogram stretch
- slight dodge/burn
- add noise
- curves
- hms
- resize
- usm

sweet idea, lighting is not great, but still a decent shot. Noise hurts this too. 5

Love the grain and the off-center composition.
