This image is replicating the lighting effect seen in the photograph 'a light in the dark.'.
The lighting effect seen in the original image has a single light source originating directly in front of and shining almost directly towards the camera. The light shines through a stained glass window and is filtered through decorative woodwork. The light then comes to rest on the floor making interesting reflections in the polished floorboards as well as up the sides of the church pews. The image can be broken down into a central light source with the bottom half of the image displaying a lot of reflection and the top half not showing reflection.
To recreate this, I made a model consisting of a cardboard tube with a paper snowflake and sheet of trace paper on the end. The light is shone through the tube from the snowflake end and the camera took the image down the tube towards the light. The trace paper represents the glass and the paper snowflake represents the decorative woodwork the light was filtered by. The model also features small diamonds of colour to represent the stained glass in the original image. The bottom half of the cardboard tube was constructed using reflective paper to create the effect of the light hitting the floorboards and up the sides of the pews. The top half of the tube was made using matt white paper to give the reflection and end point and create the non-reflective top part of the image.
A combination of a shutter speed of 1/250 and an f-stop value of 4.5 was used to create an image that showcased the reflective light but also allowed darker portions of the image to contrast. Due to the very reflective nature of the cardboard used, a very quick shutter speed was necessary to control the amount of light that was bouncing around the model.
We took this from the island in the middle of the road, to show without streetlight interference that we had the right church.
Replicating the ridges of a seahorse's body was a very interesting challenge. and I think the fabric choices are impeccable.
Replication of the cover art for an issue of the comic RASL by Jeff Smith. The challenge was to replicate the work of someone famous and published like him.
