Inspired by Jon Cavalier's black and white nights (oh, wait, that was Roy Orbison) and the other great photographers (Evan Fleisher, Joe Bausch, Lambrecht, Koenig, et al.) I've put together the beginnings of golf holes in an Andy Warhol, avant-garde edit series. It's currently running on my Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook feeds. If you're convinced that I do this for personal gain, you're incorrect. Here is the pudding proof:
--no per-hit reward;
--clubs do not reward me for featuring their holes;
--no site that sells my work.


Having cleared that up, I've played around with photoshop to create a first few days. My goal is to go through the end of the year on a daily basis, which will give us 45 or so images. Have a look if so inclined.

Ive been playing around with retouching software recently too. Here's a Melbourne homage to Harry Rountree:



And one Picassoesque!:

The White River runs dark through the heart of the Town,
Washed the people coal-black from the hole in the ground.

For those of us with zero skill for painting, the ability to manipulate images in photoshop is some compensation. I like the work posted above.

Could you put bubble captions imagining what the hole is saying? A Lichtenstein vs Warhol experiment.
