The Mean Reds
For all the 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' fans I've labeled this color study 'The Mean Reds'. This is picture is my deep shot. I had my lovely friend, Emily, be my model. She wore my red coat and we marched up to the gardens right after the snow fall.

I drove to my Brother-in-Law's house in Rigby and spotted this tagged railroad car. Lucky for me it was still there the next day when I came back with my camera.

This shot I slowed down my shutter speed with no light in the room except for an overhead spot. I then spun a red Reese's peanut butter cup. I love how it came out looking almost planetary.

My last picture is from a sad little Christmas tree I found in a neighbor's yard. It is also my shallow depth shot. Sharp in the front, nice and blurry in the back.
Rachel, your Reese's peanut butter cup picture came out really cool. I wasn't even sure what it was until I read the description. Your idea was unique and I loved how bright and colorful the shot turned out to be. Great job experimenting with the shutter speed. Also, the graffiti looks nice. I like how close you made the shot. Lastly, I think your shallow depth of field picture displays a perfect mixture of background blur and crisp foreground. Wonderful work!
ReplyDeleteThat was such a good idea spinning the Reeses cup and using the spot for the light. I love how it turned out. You have such good ideas. I love how unique the subject matter is as well. Your blended shots turned out really cool as well. You captured a very sharp and crisp picture of the carpet and the blending is great. Great angles as well, I think the spinning chocolate is still by far my favorite.
