Painting with Light

I was going for a mad science sort thing in this photo, i used a Nikon D70s camera, with a Nikkor 18-70mm lens, it had an aperature of 5.6 and a shutter speed of 30 seconds.

Picture Perfect Lighting

This photo was taken with and exposure time of 1/50th of a second and a 5.6 aperture with the canon EOS digital rebel xsi. I used a 1:2 lighting method and then adjust around with the sides and angles of the lights until I got what I wanted. In the, end I used a light on the right and one light straight on. In Photoshop I softened the photo by taking out most of the colour to the point where the head band and hair were the only things that would pop. 

In the photo on the right I had a light over head on the left and a light on the right. I shot this photo with a Canon EOS digital rebel xsi and an exposure time of 1/60th second and an aperture of f/5.6. I made this photo black and white to make less background noise and draw the eye to her face.

There is no tension in her face but rather in the body posture.

I expected this project to be hard, but never this hard. The letter "F" was my hardest letter to find. This assignment helped me to open my mind to looking at the world differently, and got me to looking out side the box.  I made all my photos black and white because i found that were fighting for attention, and looked to busy in color.

First Post- Someone Who Inspires Me

Richard Avedon is a photographer who inspires me. The way he captures emotion and light into his photography is truly inspiring.   He has a very interesting history.  I love that most of his photos are taken in black and white but when you look at them you see them in colour

He has won several awards and is thought to be one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century.  He was mainly a fashion photographer, but his portraits are my favourites. The pictures above is one of my favourites by him, but I have tons.
