Happiness in Nature: A Senior Surreal Photo by Alexander Walther (2013)

The hardness in a fence and the texture that lies within a tree all share one element in common, wood. This particular item has been put out for numerous uses but most importantly, the invention of the skateboard. For my surreal portrait, I put together four different HDR photos. The fence, tree texture, arms, and skateboard all define what I viewed as surreal when examining the elements in a skateboard. All pieces were taken with three different exposures to reveal the HDR effect and its cool results. In addition I added the liquid effect on my skateboard to make it appear as if it was melting. The main idea for this piece is to depict skateboarding and its nature-friendly input source in a revealing and positive way.
