Some years ago, I saw a neat photo collage centered around power lines by some artist, and thought it was a neat idea. Here's my attempt at making one using photos I've taken on my phone throughout the years. This was a project i did a while ago, and thought you might appreciate seeing, even if it's a bit jank in some spots. I wanted to share the before photo of the power lines, but can't find the original DNG file, nor the Photoshop project file. ~~I'll go for a walk to find the original spot i took the image at as proof :)~~

Found the rough spot I took the base picture in. Yes, I did remove the 2nd tower in the edit

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !collage@lemmy.ml

Makes you think there could be other similar things that would work for this

I am making this my phone background if you don't mind.

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 months ago

Omg thank you! I can't believe that some random thing I made would be so appreciated. Again, thank you!

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

Looks great on the lockscreen

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

Totally agree!

Outside linemen's new tattoo idea? I don't know anything about design but, this gives me that geometric bear tattoo vibes. Very cool.

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 6 months ago

Looking at some of those tattoo pictures, yea that does give the same vibes. I assume it's because of the filled in shapes. BTW happy cake day!

[-] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Yeah its a cool design. If you do anything involving a network rack LMK. Low voltage people need love too lol.

Oh shoot, I didn't even notice. Thanks!

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago

I do have a homelab, but it's not big enough for me to even own a rack, so I don't think it would look satisfying. I'll send you a dm if I ever get access to networking equipment of that scale.

[-] Ptsf@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

This is gorgeous. Well done.

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

Aww thank you!

I like the composition of yours more than Hyner's tbh!

He still gets credit for the cool idea though :)

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

It might because I added a lot less images, so it might have made his photo look overdone. Thanks for the compliment!
