I have another class right now where I hae to set up a still life to keep a round for quite a while, and I really wanted to use my tattoo guns in it someway because I love photographs of my tools, or even other artists intently at work. Anyway, that would have been a little impractical because I need them, but for the first class asignment we were to look up pictures that we liked, and I picked this one. Not only for the model, but because of the background and the focus. I like photos that are meshed focus.
I don't even know where to start with this one. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I guess this intrigues me so much because... I think there may be a thousand words in there somewhere. I want to know how to do this!
This one is that focus thing I was talking about. I wanted to get a black and white photo of a tattoo with just the ink in color, but this is the closest I came to. I would love to know what filter, setting, if any, they used for this. The colors are very rich, and the focus is in the between, that place right before background right after foreground. How the heck did he do that?
Graphic art? I think so. I was never blessed enough to have photoshop as a teenager or really anything close, so even the simplest layered peice makes me wonder.
Check out the colors of this photo! Is it film that the Camera Guy is using, is it digital? Did he enhance those colors on his computer or did the photo come born like that? This is a sweet use of vivid color.
Black and White. The absence of vivid color. This one gets me because I know the camera guy picked that specific spot out of everywhere to be his backdrop and I woud love to understand why.
