London, UK - kathy archbold - Friday, May 18th, 2007 : goo

Painted on the end of terrace houses in Deptford, South-East London. Although its in a market street, its quite a run down area , so as well as providing some colour Its just great to think some council official must have given permission for this!

The British get away with so much, and it all comes down to quaintness. I mean, how friggin quaint!

hah, britain is quite possibly one of the most bureaucratic nations on earth. seriously, try living here. Nice find kathy, i love the vignetting on the photo.
kathy archbold: 19th May 2007 - 16:55 GMT
Thanks Jamie! Yeah, bureaucratic, expensive - but yet....
'quaintness'? er, I dunno, I like to think we find creative ways of complaining!!
CE: Was this taken with a Lomo camera?
kathy archbold: 19th May 2007 - 22:00 GMT
No, not a lomo, this was taken with a nikon coolpix and done with photoshop - but thanks, I was trying to make it look like a lomo. In fact I just got a coloursplash, but its been a bit disappointing so far...
CE: 20th May 2007 - 15:04 GMT
You did a good job with the photoshop effects. It looks very much like it was taken with an actual lomo. Did you use a special plug-in for it?
kathy archbold: 20th May 2007 - 17:01 GMT
No CE, its all trial and error. Mainly fiddling with selctive col, and adding darker edges with the round marqee tool inversed and feathered to around 200.
Thanks! I know some people hate photos being 'processed', but my view is, its only like doing your own developing - plus I can't do too much with my camera settings. : )
