Creature, 2014
Sometimes a photographic mistake can actually turn out to be quite artistic.
The above image initially was captured as my wife deliberately pressed her face up close to my camera (on a tripod at the time) just as I pressed the shutter. She was playing around…messing with me a bit.
Luckily I didn’t delete the file in the field (not a good habit, anyway, except for the most heinous mistakes), and when I saw it on the computer screen at home, I decided it had potential. A bit of creative post-processing…and voilà!
So, don’t readily delete your “mistakes”–something interesting could come of them!
