I usually don’t like photo’s fiddled with digitally. Heather this is truly amazing. There is a classic cult surf movie from the early 1970’s called “morning of the earth” by Alby Falzon this art immediately makes me think of the opening section of this movie. Congratulations, and thanks for sharing.
Heather Hartkamp replied
Thanks Heydon. I know the movie – saw it when it came out but don’t remember much about it. I’m with you on excessive digital meddling but sometimes an image cries out to be taken over that line between pure photography and digital art. This was one of those.
