Wes is one weird looking dude

Bug Eyed

Im calling them aliens now, for lack of a better name. But I am growing more and more fond of it the more I keep calling it that. The project itself spawned from a photobooth project I was working on. Simply amplifying the effects of the cool photoboth app.

A few more....

Nothing special or interesting to write about these two, sorry. I just like them. Color, light, and sharpness all came out how I was hoping and I am happy with them.

Basso's other half

This one is just creepy. I can't look away, I think its the eyes that draw me in.....Well eye. Yep, thats right there it's the same one. I just copied the image of half of his face and flipped it horizontally. I like it much more than the previous version I posted earlier. Because my lens and his face were not on parallel planes, it gives the image a slight illusion of a fish eye. While in reality the focal length is more like a 70. I am going to make more of these.

1" exposures

Sometimes your sync cord just does not feel like working. I know half of you don't even know what a sync cord is and the other half just thinks of them like a wlakman. In this day and age radio slaves are all the rage and well lets face it, there not cheap. My Nikon d7000 does not have a sync cord so i was forced to buy a hot shoe adapter that has a female pc port on it for my sync cord. The only problem was they might as well have packaged up a rock and sent it to me because it works just as well. But, with all problems come solutions. Quickly changed my plan from perfect crisp lighting to 1 second exposures and the test button on my off camera flash. It had some fun effects, and the ambient light made for a nice warm glow. Not exactly what I was going for when I set out but fun none the less

Focus

Focus is over rated.....Anyone can take a perfectly sharp photograph, where's the fun in that? color, form, and composition are all way more important factors in making a good photograph when you don't have focus to rely on. But to much of a good thing is always bad. You really have to be careful with this. Although, when executed properly there is nothing more better.

pooch!
