This was so hard to do! I had to hang up the frames and then had to wait for the right time to take the shot because it was so windy. xP
This is a photo of my friend "Frames" in the studio that I used for my dominant value photo. I wanted to get a low-key shot that only consisted of half of his face and began to fade to darkness on the other side. The lighting set up consisted of one very strong light directly to the left of the model at about eye level.
I added emotional/conceptual depth to this photo by adding a lot of emphasis on his glasses and his eye. A person's eyes are some of the most noticeable features of someone, and they often can bring out a lot of emotion in photographs. I really wanted to make sure that the glasses were a very impactful piece of the shot as well which is one of the reasons why I used this style of low-key photography. It brings into detail the shape of his face, his glasses, and brings out a lot of depth within and around the eye. I added conceptual/emotional depth by bringing an emphasis to his glasses which perfectly frame the most emotional feature of this photo: his eye.
(this one's probably best viewed large if your monitor is big enough)

The contents are anything but square ...
Daily Shoot: Right (90-degree) angles can help define a composition. Make a photograph involving intersecting lines.
Or in my house, as it were.
This is the upstairs landing - the hallway is painted (in a warm, delicious color I love called "Whisper of Warm Apricot" - poncy much?) and done, and I am so in love with it. Just to the left of the photo my cherry blossom lights will be hung on the wall, and the stairs and banister are soon to be painted.
I've spent the afternoon hanging up photos from travels, of family (including photos of grandparents and great-grandparents in black and white and sepia), of things I love and which make our house a home. I've always wanted a hallway covered in happy memories and photos, all in different frames. Now I've got one.

Standing at the side of the main building at Swanwick Junction, Midland Railway Centre on the 7th August 2015 are the rusting frames and wheels of a 0-6-0 steam locomotive. I suspect that these are the frames and wheels of a London Midland and Scottish Railway Fowler 0-6-0T 3F “Jinty”, most likely to be 47564. This engine was built in 1928 by the Hunslet Engine Company and withdrawn in 1965. It was then used as a stationary boiler for carriage heating at the Red Bank Carriage Sidings Manchester. It was acquired for spares by Derby City Council in 1972 to support the three “Jinty’s (47327, 47357, 47445) it acquired in 1970. All four are leased to the Midland Railway Centre. Of course some of these bits could be actually from any of the four locomotives.
These should be harder than the first one, but I think most of these are still easy. The next one, I will make really hard.
From time to time I go back to the local museum of photography trying to feed my soul and train my eye like masters of the category, whilst keeping in mind to do it MY way!

Taken on 8/14 May 2018 . Through TS 130 mm APO refractor and modified Canon 6D camera. Thirty sub frames , 6 minutes exposure each stack in DSS and post processed in PS . Looks like wide angle FOV :) This image is taken with small 5 " inch optics, notice so much H II regions / pink and red nebulae / visible in the galaxy , I did not use H @ Alpha filter !
An H II region or HII region is a region of interstellar atomic hydrogen that is ionized.[1] It is typically a cloud of partially ionized gas in which star formation has recently taken place, with a size ranging from one to hundreds of light years, and density from a few to about a million particles per cubic cm. The Orion Nebula, now known to be an H II region, was observed in 1610 by Nicolas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc by telescope, the first such object discovered.
They may be of any shape, because the distribution of the stars and gas inside them is irregular. The short-lived blue stars created in these regions emit copious amounts of ultraviolet light that ionize the surrounding gas. H II regions—sometimes several hundred light-years across—are often associated with giant molecular clouds. They often appear clumpy and filamentary, sometimes showing bizarre shapes such as the Horsehead Nebula. H II regions may give birth to thousands of stars over a period of several million years. In the end, supernova explosions and strong stellar winds from the most massive stars in the resulting star cluster will disperse the gases of the H II region, leaving behind a cluster of stars which have formed, such as the Pleiades.
H II regions can be observed at considerable distances in the universe, and the study of extragalactic H II regions is important in determining the distance and chemical composition of galaxies. Spiral and irregular galaxies contain many H II regions, while elliptical galaxies are almost devoid of them. In spiral galaxies, including our Milky Way, H II regions are concentrated in the spiral arms, while in irregular galaxies they are distributed chaotically. Some galaxies contain huge H II regions, which may contain tens of thousands of stars. Examples include the 30 Doradus region in the Large Magellanic Cloud and NGC 604 in the Triangulum Galaxy.

"Remember, Chiyo, geisha are not courtesans. And we are not wives. We sell our skills, not our bodies. We create another secret world, a place only of beauty. The very word "geisha" means artist and to be a geisha is to be judged as a moving work of art."
