Beautiful Banding

Banding together at sunset.

A huge distressed orange sun disc setting over horizontal retro stripes of gold, red, teal, and deepening blues. Minimal retro-stripe sunset.

The Story

Sunsets over the lagoon descend in slices, not blends: gold, red, teal, then blues, in clean horizontal bands. In production terms, banding is usually filed as a defect. From Bryant Park it reads as the standard format, repeated nightly with a distressed sun.

The Making

  • Sunset built as bold horizontal bands in Illustrator - the gradient deliberately stepped at measured intervals, not smoothed.
  • Aged hard in Photoshop with letterpress texture and a distressed sun disc whose edge erosion is masked rather than random.
  • Print-prepped at 300 dpi.
