What has failed in my project and why.
In the photos below so much is going on that direction is missing and this is not compensated by an amazing atmosphere or lighting. The message is unclear. The top photo can probably be improved. The elements are good enough for that. The second photo actually consists of 2 parts; above and below. Both are acceptable independently, but together I do not see it as an image that arouses my interest.


The line on this image comes from an airplane, an artificial cloud. Unfortunately, this is not reflected in this work and is only a disturbing element that does not compliment the image. After several attempts, I have removed this photo from the selection for now.
This was an investigation into the further simplification, abstracting of the images to only leave paths; and topographic map. Although I may not find it as bad as an image (the one with the white background), it seems to fit nowhere.
This has been a test to see if, based on the lines, I could omit curves in the photo's edges (now turn black to white). However, I could not do this precisely enough and the shapes that remained did not, for me, add to the image.
The photos I take are rendered in the process to be able to mix the 2d and 3d photos at a time. However, the rendering can go wrong. You can see an example of this here. During rendering, 2 layers are usually generated, one with and one without noise. With luck only 1 of the 2 has this kind of holes. I often photoshop away the problem. However, in this case both layers have these square transparent blocks. What causes it? I haven't figured that out yet. It is not that bad as an idea to use the holes, but it must have a reason and it is certainly not present here.

No idea, just an ugly picture

The funny thing is that now that I put all these failures on one page, they together produce a striking series with a kind of ugliness that speaks; bizarre.
