Well once again I find myself way behind and need to catch up. Here are the photos from the last week and a half or so! Some were pretty fun to do! Whats your favorite?
Day 204
Taste the double complete rainbow! The idea for this somewhat came from
this video. Not sure if any of you have seen it, but its pretty funny. I was probably eating skittles at the same time as watching this video and thus came this photo:
Day 205
Its been such a nice summer and we rarely have taken opportunity to use the family boat. But we went recently and I decided to avoid putting on sun screen. I guess that was a mistake. I am not known as having a dark complexion anyways, so being very white doesn't help the cause of not having sun screen on at all either. Thus a sun burn was my punishment. Can you tell I was wearing a hat?:
Day 206
I really have no idea at all where this came from. I have been having some weird dreams lately, but this one probably would top them all. Anyone want to take a stab at what it means? Its like out of a scene from ghost busters, but I was using a tube roll from a paper roll as my ghost buster gun, and I was trapping myself with the gun and trying to capture me in a ghost busters trap thingy which is a tissue box. Crazy dreams... huh? Well here is my picture portrayal of that dream:
Day 207
I just though it would be cool to see what it would be like to have my hand on fire, and then to stare at it all intently:
Day 208
My brother wanted to see what it would be like if I were to smile, and frown, or be straight faced at the same time. Its not the easiest photo to edit to make it look good. But I gave it a go:
Day 209
I have been working on a new style lately. I thought I would give it a go on another one of my 365 day photos. I have done this type of style on other clients, and a couple times on myself. But this one I thought would be pretty fun. The process is quite the difficult one. So I am still working on getting the look just right, but this one turned out pretty good. What do you think?
Day 210
Well if I had the time when I was working on this photo, I would have cut myself out and placed me on a background where the sun was setting. But I settled for what I got in the studio. Kinda looks like I am staring at a sunset....right?
Day 211
I have had this image in my head for a while. I wanted to add some chainsaws in here, but I dont own one to take a photo of. So I just used multi colored balls.
Day 212
I had the idea to do a color wheel t-shirt type photo. The colors are not exactly the same colors you would find in a color wheel, but the colors are very fun! This was a fun photo to work on:
Day 213
I kinda like the look here, but still think its missing something. Like me holding a champagne glass with red whine or something in it for a nice color punch to the photo. But I still like the look here:
Day 214
This one made me laugh. When I was younger I used to be a magician. I even worked in a magic shop doing magic when I was in high school. I still know a few tricks, and love showing little kids, because they believe in magic more then those that are a bit older. And its fun entertaining little kids! Grown ups just bug you till you tell them how to do it. Oh well. Magic is still fun. But I have decks of card laying around and thought I would do something fun with a deck. Here is what I came up with:
Day 215
Alright, I must admit this is probably one of the most fun photos I have done so far. And the editing worked out awesome. My dog was a good participant also. This is such a fun photo I think. So far those that have seen it have just laughed. I hope that I get a laugh out of you from this, as that is what I try to do with my photos, is to give you guys some type of enjoyment looking at them. Anyways here is the photo:
Day 216
The giant me came out to do some stomping. I dont know what we all did to deserve this, but he really needs to climb back up the magic bean stock. I have such fun making these photos. Though I wanted to add a background to this photo, as I think stomping through a city would have added a bit more too it. Still fun:
Day 217-219
With the next three days, I decided to play a bit with grids. Grids are things that go over the light to control the spill of light onto other objects in the room such as the background. It really just helps the light travel strait instead of giving to much spread to the light. The result is a darker background. The background in the next three photos is a white background, but because the light is kept from hitting the background too much, the result is that white background turning grey to a dark grey or even black. I thought I would play around a bit with the technique. Here are the three photos in those three days
217- One light used, which was a huge octobox
218-Two lights used with grids. One on the back for a bit of rim light. The front light this day was changed to a beauty dish
219- The same type of lighting as the day before
