Chaos: Don't Stress, Undress

[Cogan]

I snapped a photo while my hubby got me some ice cream. I have to grab the opportunities when they present themselves
@JustAnotherFlower tasked us with selective color. I used PicsArt and a selective color tool, chose the blue of the flowers in my jammies and then ran a paper filter to get the Polaroid effect. I added a little noise to make it look more grainy and here you go.
I'm glad I got a minute to try the challenge!

That is a great shot taken in the moment! Your hubby is a very lucky man!
I like what you did with the pic too.

As a professional photographer of 15 years, it is against my code of ethics to participate in a selective color challenge.

Therefore I select all of these colors which helped me de-stress.

 

[Lmizzler]

Thank you kindly, hon.

Thanks! I swear, it's the direct downward angle shot. I couldn't use the ceiling fan like @Lmizzler suggested. I ended up putting a kitchen chair on top of the bed, set a laundry basket ontop of it, extended out the tripod fully to hang off the bed, then used a large throw to hold the tripod down.

I want a pic of this setup…that’s epic.

But the shot you ended up with….

DO NOT judge me...

And yes, I realize there was an opened cardboard box in the background.

I laugh at the fact that seeing the open cardboard box was your primary concern.

We live in a real world, our houses aren’t Southern Living photo shoots! Your bedroom still looks better put together than mine!

Awesome set up, though! Ingenuity is an amazing thing

Are you any relation to Rube Goldberg?

I absolutely hate room clutter, even though it happens naturally. I try to keep things tidy but that damned box irritated me. It was disposed of shortly after my photo session. And the only reason I have a photo of this abomination was so @akaSol Could laugh at it.

I'm a Redneck... that probably has something to do with it.

I love everything about this picture.

Selective Coloring using Snapseed...

-Shoot the photo in color.
-Open the photo in Snapseed, go to Tools, select Tune Image.
-Turn the saturation all the way down to 0 and fiddle with anything else while here (Shadows,Light, etc.) Click the checkmark to save progress.
- Click the Edit Stack mark (looks like a curved arrow at the upper right.) Then select View Edits.
- Bottom right now, click on Tune Image, then the square with a paintbrush.
- Far left now, Click the Invert icon. (Looks like a half circle with shading.) Then click the eyeball on the right. The image will shift to red (this helps to see where you're selecting to colorize.) The numbers in the middle should be at zero unless you want a pastel look then tinker around at 25. If you oops while drawing with your fingertip, turn it back to 100 to erase the oops.
- if at any time, you want to see how it's going click the eyeball icon again.
My fingers are tired now...

Zoweee wowow......my fingers are about to be busy too

As a fellow redneck...

You should see what I can create with Chemtape and bubblewrap.

I feel like this is a thread mini-challenge waiting to happen...

Can I take your picture..?

I mean, I don't have any chemtape. I do have bubble wrap, though.

Oh baby, talk backwoods engineering to me

*spellbound*
Wow!!
Thank you so much for sharing. (And welcome to Lit.)

This is Lit…no place for judgement here. If I’m judging anything, it’s the engineering genius that you used to come up with this setup!

Good for you for going to all lengths to get the shot. It was definitely well worth it. One of the best of yours I’ve seen!

Lounge wear? Be right over!

Okay, let me try this. One of the goofy things I like to do is add a “censored” bar over my naughty bits. Full frontal shots of me aren’t all that great, and this way I don’t have to link it. Unless there’s a well defined peen shadow, then I’ll still link it.

I take the picture as normal, either selfie mode or on a timer, then crop it to size. I use an app called Censor and draw the black bar over what I want to cover. There is also a way to pixelate what you want to hide, but I don’t use that one too much.

After that, I open Photo Editor and use the text function to write “censored” over the bar. I also use that to put my name on my pics.

I see a little bit of a "peen shadow." (stealing that term)
