2/52: The Hourless Forest.
Please view LARGE.
Strobist: Lumopro LP160 @ 1/4 and 35mm camera right (on the ground, maybe 20ft from subject) fired via Alienbee triggers.
I've decided, as a result of being reminded by my last two photo projects how much I really love making stuff (which often takes a back burner to earning money in order to survive), that I am beginning a 52 week project. It's about 6x more manageable and realistic than a 365 project, and I'm certain I need a reason to make weekly photography a life or death priority. I'll probably be late in creating things once in a while, but I'll do my best to post a new photograph every Tuesday. I don't plan on following any particular theme, although I'd like to be lighting each photo and focusing on a person or multiple people. I might stray from this, but what counts is that I'm shooting, right?
Anyway, this is my first actual attempt at something slightly narrative, although it's not the first narrative piece I've ever planned. I think the true strength of a narrative or tableau lies in attention to details and a comprehensive design. This photograph doesn't really have those things, but there were several beginnings of an idea behind what we shot, as well as some collaboration between myself and my subjects. Let me know what you think!
