“Wrens Nest Wood – 5800K photograph version”

Using photographic editing software, this blog article is created to represent directly adverse global warming effects upon nature.

The first image from my quick sketch study #1 in blue ink pen entitled “Wrens Nest Wood – 5800K photograph version” explains how digitally adjusting the ‘Kelvin’ colour temperature scale of an electronic photograph changes its visual pleasance.

For instance, ‘cooling’ the Kelvin temperature of my artwork photograph to 3800K (Kelvin, digitally edited) highlights blue spectrum hues {scientifically; wavelengths} in my artwork as seen here:

My Kelvin scale digital adjustment is similar to the light effect of the Sun – dependent upon its strength.

Determined via cosmic arrangement, age, velocity, angles, atmospheric conditions, elements, obstructions (local/spatial), cyclic rotations and proximity to Earth’s surface.

Viewing “Wrens Nest Wood – 10000K photograph version” below, we can feel the difference between each individual artwork – from the 3800K, 5800K and 10000K versions respectively.

Kelvin temperature scale has dramatic relevance in photography.

This article seeks pertinent correlation with Kelvin colour temperature scale and manmade global warming.

The latter indisputably documented, scientifically peer reviewed, journalistically communicated, referenced through tragic human experiences, economically reverberated, commercially disruptive, artistically magnified and politically emotive as an existential threat to life.

Natural beauty endangered in the context of visibly destructive cues.

Clearly my interest, artistically, from a conservational viewpoint is explicably linked to the origin of William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin‘s own scientific experiment.

That is to write, his literal burning {a block of} carbon to establish colour temperature as a unit of quantifiable measurement.

We see within this series of five digital photographs from my original “Wrens Nest Wood” [blue ink pen, sketch study #1 on A4 80gsm paper] the harsh environmental effect burning colour from our natural wooded landscape causes!

Let’s take a look at what happens when the 10000K {Kelvin} scale is digitally tripled:

… and finally, quadrupled:

The horrifying end result is seen in “Wrens Nest Wood – 10000Kx4 photograph version”.

Our beautiful ‘warm-yet-cold’ 5800K natural reference photograph now appears to have turned our wooded landscape into a seemingly uninhabitable charred version of itself!

We should all be aghast, chimes the climatic hour of need.

Bleak landscapes, leached of palatable homeliness.  Intensely devoid, unbearable to our science-faction eyes.

‘Dune’-like.

I hope you have greatly enjoyed my thought-invigorating artworks designed to assist with positive climate-change inspiration.

Now, more than ever, is the Time to exponentially reduce carbon, N0x and other pollutive manmade particulate materials throughout our worldwide environments.

Thank you dear Readers.
