I’m still not taking m/any photographs of late although the camera is in the car with me most days for the purposes of fantastic sunsets, when the clouds go south for the summer that is. Soon, hopefully. I can’t remember what I was doing when I took this. The date on the photograph is July last [...] So I have this vision inside my head of a piece of jewellery that flashes points of light, a black background, and multiple exposures. The way I do this – on this occasion – is to use the multi-fire functionality of my flash. And also I wish I had a master unit to use the flash [...] One of the things I was interested in giving a shot at was sort of product glossy magazine type photographs. Most of the product photography that I see done through the various photography groups I am involved in tend to involve lightboxes.

Albeit, [...] This is one of the last afterdark shots from South County Dublin this evening. I haven’t really done anything like this before. I don’t think I’ve even tried. I’d given some of my filter gear to one of my friends so was looking around for stuff to play with. All I really had was his [...] And, this is not a slow exposure. This is a flash-over exposed Guinness glass, and I guess enough is said by this. This is from Kyle Tunney’s Evening photowalk a few weeks ago. In fact, I’d done a photo walk there myself a few days earlier, and had shot it slightly differently on that occasion. This is actually a piece of public art which I was not aware of until that first photowalk. I do not do a lot [...] |
