Trying a new technique for black and white images:

So far, I've found it works best for cloudy skies or pictures that have no sky in. Unfortunately, my other test subjects did have cloudless skies, so won't be posted here on the grounds of being a bit shit.

 

I've only been trying it on old pictures, so I will take a few with the new method in mind and post them later.

It's a disused petrol station on an old American air base. The old petrol station shop is still in use (it's a local shop for the area of the base that's been converted to houses), but bizarrely it faces away from the pumps.

 

There were a few security guards walking around the surrounding buildings (still in use) and the shop was still open when we went, but no one came to ask us to leave, so I guess no one cares about people using it to take pictures.

 

Not the best photo though, since my camera ran out of batteries after 2 photos, so it was one of my practice shots.

Didn't you hear? There was a freakishly localised earthquake. It was limited solely to Staffordshire show ground. Strange really. Surprised no cars were damaged to be honest.

Her natural, unbridled beauty distracts from the comparatively bland Beetle. I figured it was easier to delete her instead of the Beetle, although I'd much rather it the other way round.

 

I was going to ask her to pose for a photo, but well...

Went out with some friends and fannied around with night time photos:

Car based japery. This basically invoved me hanging out of 1 car whilst photographing the other. Good, clean, safe fun:

Using what I'd learnt at Focus on Imaging, I thought I'd have a crack at studio lighting. Nothing too fancy, just thought I'd play around:

Flash with diffuser quite far back from the sheet to give a decent even look to the background. No front lighting apart from ambient light (in this case the kitchen light). Backlighting comes through the bottle, showing the moisture on it. Moisture was a bit shit though. Need a finer mist spray bottle really.

 

Knew there was a reason I bought the special editions of Bioshock 2 and WoW: Cataclysm. They make excellent backdrop supports!

Went to a car show today. Most of the cars were shit, so I spent most of my time photographing the ladies.

Nuts magazine was there, hence some of the ladies:
