Have I changed my mind about one print that I may show in Pretty’s exhibition?

I have had a slight doubt in one of my prints to show in the latest upcoming exhibition at the pretty’s solicitors in Ipswich and thought about changing one to a more stronger image.

Why did I have doubt about showing the ‘By The Waters 8’ image?

I think it is because I think I must have got the lighting a bit wrong on some of the trees within this image where I thought there was too much light on the one closest to the water. I can fix this error and use this image for another time but I guess this kind of gave me an excuse to use another slight stronger tone of image than this one.

What other image did I have in mind?

I called my other new image ‘China Wonders 2‘ as this image was taken in a particular old part of Huang Zhou in south of China and is a very old place that links to the long ancient shopping street. I call this image ‘China wonders 2’ because this image in particular out of over 100 images taken near the same area, stand out the most which is why I call this one of my greatest wonders that I seen in China.

It has this ancient feel to it like I am in the movies, this natural vibe that sends through my body with the rattling trees and old stone pathways with smooth white shrine buildings. When I decided to edit this in Photoshop, it gave me an even bigger natural ancient vibe to it the time I turned this image into black and white and created this very nice contrast with nice shadowing to it. This also is one of my most interesting memories in China and is another reason to why I should be using this image.

When will I print this image and the other 3 images for the exhibition?

As they have now increased the time to submit artwork due to christmas circumstances I do not have to now submit my work until the 14th of December at the very latest. Hopefully my work will be chosen to be shown and if so, it will be the case of choosing a day some time next week to get them printed off and ready to put on screen. Once this is done, I can then organise my finished prints in nice mounted frames. The time all this is done it will be a relief and I will certainly look forward to good responses from viewers.
