what next

so im thinking looking into portraiture and the effect of light within them

so keep up with the pics i have done however next step i want to use 2 people in the same image with light cast across them and see how that looks

i just dont no whether i should do really high contrast or simple like this




or like this:

april

hot glue

by dripping the hot glue into water i can create natural shapes and something i can peel off and then project to create more interesting shadows appose to the other ways i have been creating them, by using the gaps in the fishnet tights over april, faye and johns face.






this is as experiment i hope when i take it out it will keep its shape, so i can create a double shadow that has worked really well on other pictures.

more work

edits

projection

overlay

not sure how i feel about these i still prefer the ones i am doing by hand will see how it goes

prep

for april on wednesday
for her shoot i will be carrying on with what i looked at with edwin projecting things on to her face with inspiration of the shadow work previous.


simple piece of brass foil i nailed a line of holes into ready to push the nail fully through.



once i had done this i created interesting holes pushing the nail though.




as you can see i used a nail on a picture frame using a piece of slate as a hammer.



as you can see its pretty sharp after i have made the holes i want i push the sharp sides flat just incase.



all three designs i still have the other ones i used on edwin too.

slate quarry

even though i do love landscape photogrpahy i didnt really have the right lens's with me but i love the pic i took of chris it tells a story
