More slit scan experiments — the agony of choosing

December 6, 2016 By JimK Leave a Comment

This post is part of a series about some experiments I’m doing combining space and time in slit scan photographs. The series starts here.

Now that I’ve got the Matlab parallel processing going, it’s easy to produce lots of different renderings of the same capture set. There’s a downside to that. How to choose between a bunch of really nice images that share too many similarities to be part of the same web gallery or show? And when to stop making new variations?

A few examples of one scene at one time with only vertical slits (horizontal slits tomorrow):

Decisions, decisions…
