The absurdity in life... breaking out..
In round 16 of the Get Pushed group I was coupled to Xavier who has an extensive photostream including stuff from very funny self portraits to eh, well have a look!
He met the push I gave him with an incredibly still life. So here is what he told me after he noticed something missing in my photo stream:
Sometimes I think we take ourselves too seriously as photographers and artists. So my challenge to you is to make me laugh. Find the absurdity in life and photograph it well, but in such a way that it creates a visual chuckle.
The subject and technique can be anything that accomplishes the task.
I had the little sign in mind for a long time, to be put on a frame with a middle eastern dagger.
So I ordered it for the push (thanks Xavier) and during a busy week at work had my thoughts trail off to different ways to shoot it and went through about 4 different concepts (most of them too complicated to shoot) and ended up linking it to a self portrait (well, my wife shot it, but I am the model).
Camera Canon EOS 7D
Aperture f/5.6 (Av set for both shots)
