PCA184 – Low Key
Sunday, November 20 - Sunday, December 4, 2011
Image Tag: pca184
We tried this 96 assignments ago. Let's give it another shot.
The assignment is to photograph any subject using low key lighting style. Low Key photography is dominated by black, and highlights are used to paint in the detail. Its more than just an underexposed photo, and its more than just a black background. Low Key should have some amount of pure white or at least highlights in it, and usually does not have a lot of middle-gray. Some research on the web will quickly show that there is a wider than expected definition to low key so some studying may be in order.
WIT:
A shamelessly sentimental photograph of me fooling around with my wife.
The setup was similar to last week except the light was above us and slightly behind. I was inspired to do this by a film poster that I saw coming out of the cinema tonight. It took me a while to figure out how the light was positioned to light both the actor and actresses faces - Anne pointed out that it must be above and behind them because the actress was looking back and up at the actor.
It is quite tough to get the focus right when you are also in the shot. I used my little 50mm f1.8 prime lens (best value for money ever!) and set the aperture at f7.1 and experimented with exposure till I got the right shot.
I would have liked to have had more light in the eyes but a reflector brought in too much light and spoiled the low key effect for me.
I did some tweaking in photoshop to remove stray hands and trouser legs that seemed to add confusion to the shot - it isn't obvious that I am sitting behind Anne (who is kneeling) so it was a little confusing to see a knee sticking out there.
I had Woodland cut me a logo, since I'm pretty sure I could never hand-cut something like this as well as their CNC machines. Turned out pretty nice, IMO. Set me back $46, but still. This will be going on the backdrop, which is rusting nicely now.
My third piece from my Fool Me series. There's been a lot about the child molesting priests in the Irish news recently. This sums up my thoughts on the matter. If you view it large you can see that the wafer has a certain symbol on it.

We had fun on April Fool's. No coffee?! That's a cruel joke
And special thanks to SleepyNeko for using the CC license! We used her photo and love it! Thanks SleepyNeko!
Why the Fool? Because this was the very last shot I took with my demo Carl Zeiss 2/50 - and I was a fool for trying, now that I HAVE to buy it. ;) But this is a pure SOOC - no crop, no color adjustment, no nada! I took this for my Lenscrack group ( www.flickr.com/groups/lenscrack/ ) - in which this month's assignment is SOOC. Nikon D700 + Carl Zeiss 50mm The journey is the reward. Please, no group invitations or badges.

Iron pyrite, shot holding my 50 1.8 reversed in front of my 100mm macro lens! (need to get a 52mm male to male thread adapter!) Tough to focus! DoF is nearly non existent.
The photo shows an area 1cm square! Looks like this could be fun!!! Need to read up on the tech. as far as aperture settings etc. for both lens'.
If you have done this and have any tips please let me know! Thanks
