Artist's Comments

Took a picture of myself in a tunnel in the harbor last night. The tunnel was actually shorter than you can see here, thanks to Photoshop. I know it's not an original theme, but nevertheless I find this to be a nice picture. Hope you like it.

o____o that has to be the creepiest tunnel I have ever seen! *shudders* But excellent job on the photo, this is great! I love how old and rotten the walls looks.

Gah, all I can think of is being chased down a neverending hallway! Love this! :heart:

Nice job. The length of the tunnel with the repetition almost makes it look like a tunnel of dirty mirrors if you know what I mean? I like it.

Emotion rush, for some reason.

I'll try to think of an objective comment later.

:o great pic!!!
it carries a great deal of emotion, i love the pose and the placement of yourself in the pic :)
and for the life of me, i cannot see where the tunnel ends and photoshop begins :O_o: and i've been staring at it for quite a while now
the contrast between the bright lights and the shade is great and i adore the fact that there isn't the cliché "light at the end of the tunnel" thingy :D
the walls, that worn down feel to it accompanied with the graffity, it really sends a strong vibe across.
also the fact that the tunnel isn't symmetrical to the frame adds a lot, however subtile it may be (better explanation in dutch: dat de lijnen van de tunnel niet evenwijdig zijn met het kader van de foto en een beetje n different angle heeft)
anyway, definate fav! :D

I just copied the back part of the tunnel several times and made it smaller each time. Then I worked away the most obvious repetitions to give each copy a unique appearance. The biggest part of my time went to get the lights and colors right. I also tried to put a great deal of depth in the picture, by reducing contrast and saturation a bit near the end of the tunnel. And a subtle blur of course :)

Thanks for the nice comment! :hug:

Let's say that the "feather" option in Photoshop is pure bliss :) Then it was only a matter of good placing.

And I hate the light at the end of the tunnel :) There was a light though, so I removed it, hehe. If there was light at the end, we would be wanting to get there, and that's not what we want us to want, right? ;)

Oeh, and great you noticed the angle! I really thought nobody would notice :) I slightly tilted the image to give a subtle desorientating effect. You really have a great eye for details! :hug:

Looooooooove it! Really do!
I feel attached to the picture when I'm looking at it. The tunnel sucks me in his endless progression. And the boy, sitting there. Just perfect!
Love the perspective too.

:+fav: !
:iconxfreak:
Whii thank you! :hug: !

I wanted to make more pictures of me in the tunnel, but it was at night, in the harbor, and I was totally alone. And then I heard some noise at the other end of the tunnel, and that really freaked me out *grin* But fortunately the first one was a good one...
