Creative Monday 198 – The Martian

“What is Creative Mondays?

Monday’s are always a drag. The start of a new week, you have to go back to that routine of going to bed early/get up early. If (like me) you have to commute then you prepare for that long journey into work and that long journey back for the first time after a nice two day break.

So to kick off those lousy Mondays, I’m going to get my creative mind flowing in a positive way. Creative Mondays. A chance for me to show off something unfinished or finished that I’ve been working on throughout the previous week.”

That vast Martian landscape has a way of making me sit up and pay attention. There’s something about the ‘Red Planet’ that captivates my mind and I had been long anticipating the latest Ridley Scott film ‘The Martian’ since I heard about it earlier this year. After seeing it last week I wanted to put together a design using some photo-manipulation techniques, gathering stock photos from Wadi Rum in Jordan where the film was shot.
