I’M COLD!! LOL…
Yes, I’m a Southerner from Atlanta, GA whose body was not made for cold weather. If its 70 degrees outside, I’m in some sort of jacket. I’m. always. cold. But, I am thankful that it is finally getting colder because we’v had a bizarre hot and cool autumn thus far. If you read my previous post, you’ll know that I recently received a new camera. While experimenting, I accidentally over-exposed an image and loved the effect. Maybe it’s my love of Man Ray and surrealism, but I often find creativity within my mistakes and experiments. Mistakes get the wheels a turnin’ and my mind a racin’. I have to admit I don’t feel as if this series is complete just yet. It feels more like a start to an idea. I’ve played around with under and over-exposure before, but never thought too much of these techniques. (I did, however, love this one image I produced of my daughter (you can see part of it at the top of my blog… her eye color became ever more rich against her ghostly, pale face.) I couldn’t stop staring at the beautiful forms of lines and colors, defining these fall trees in my backyard, which popped against the stark white and misty background. My eye was drawn to the high contrast within each composition. I found myself loving this special, unique viewpoint of a mundane subject I look at every single day. Love it when that happens. I truly feel the cold weather when I view them. And so, they became my next blog post idea. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this little experiment of mine. I hope to create a much grander set of photographs in the near future involving under and over-exposure. Twas just a starting point. Thank you!
