Escape Pods

    Here are a couple of shots for c & c. They were actually taken a few weeks before jb’s pods and by coincidence they were from a very similar angle.

    They are both of the Tony Ryan Academy for Entrepreneurship in Citywest – also known as the ‘Citywest Pods’. I tried a perspective corrected version (corrected in cs2) however it did seem to lose something quality wise in the correction and didnt gain enough symmetry to make it a worthwhile trade off. I included 2 different versions of the same photograph – the bw one has had more cloning and polishing but they are both the same picture.

    C & C welcomed – thanks for checking.

    Full size versions on flickr.

    Think I do prefer the colour one. Just more “life” to it.

    Good to see this up at last Gerard-
    When you say very similar angle,
    well, that’s a bit relative;
    there are a few clues-

    The floodlight in bottom left, for example, is quite a lot different in my one-
    and the far pod is proportionally smaller-

    You had more interesting light for yours,
    looks like morning light-
    with some direct sun-
    good for showing off the textures on the skin,
    and for the overall modeling of the forms-

    I like the conversion,
    the tones mimic the colour of the cladding of the building-

    Like I said,
    good to see this one up again,
    this is fast becoming the Custom House of west Dublin-

    Excellent Gerard.

    Really nice light, as Joseph mentioned, in particular for me
    the light hitting the inside of the more distant pod.
    Mono for me.

    Must pay another visit myself and see if I can replicate the
    quality yourself and Joseph have managed…

    Rob.
