Fotografie... als reiner Selbstzweck?
Muss das Fotografieren stets mit einer bestimmten Absicht passieren? Oder anders 'rum: Kann es überhaupt jemals ohne Absicht passieren? Und was ist mit dem Betrachter? Muss dieser immer über den Hintergrund, die Bedeutung eines Bildes Bescheid wissen, ihm Sinn zuordnen können? Oder gibt es so was wie puren ästhetischen Genuss - der alles andere unbedeutend (!) macht?
Ich frag mich g'rad... ;)
Nature Color Studies.
Yet again „the walk“, I guess you know every single tree as well as I do right now ... BUT: I tried few things with the rendering, both while taking the shots and when processing them. When shooting I used a Kenko Nostaltone Orange, which is basically a diffusor and warming filter combined. That's where the color and softness comes from. I used a zoom lens all the way open, which gives vignette and fall off and a bit of additional softness. when proscessing them in LR and PS I payed attention to „fill the highlights with color“ and control the highlights in general. There was a beautiful „soft sunshine“ today (partially cloudy), and the light was so nice I hope I could capture that a little bit at least.
Life study done in a studio class while I attended London College of Fashion. The teacher brought in an assortment of dead bugs. We were supposed to draw 2-3 different ones but this one was so detailed that I only ended up drawing this bug for 4 hours with the teacher's permission. Not sure what kind of bug it is, but I would like to find out. Charcoal on paper.
Lady with a Parasol, 1870-72
Edgar Degas
In this study of a fashionable woman holding a parasol, Edgar Degas's chief concern seems to be the effect of light on the human figure. Some areas are loosely painted, with the initial charcoal outline still visible. Others, such as the woman's profile and the details of her hat, are treated with great delicacy. An old label on the back of the painting calls it At the Race-course, which may explain the woman’s elegant appearance. Degas left this work unfinished but kept it in the studio until is death.
