A Black Fantasy Vignette.
This brave soldier has faced many enemies and fought in many wars, but now he faces his worst nightmare.

I came across one of my "old school" homemade vignette/filter holders yesterday and thought I'd share it with you who have never seen such gadgets before. It is made from a clear plastic bow which was glued together and painted. The vignettes are made from heavy plastic or mylar, frosted on one side. the openings are cut according to specific uses or needs. Some calculations had to be made as to what lens f stop combinations were to be used to prevent seeing the edge of the vignette. Some were painted to work with low key and the unpainted saw tooth vignette can be "lit up" with a small flash unit to completely burn it out with high key and white background. Digital sure makes life easier. The box/holder would slip over a lens shade mounted on the camera. It was simple although time consuming to make at the time. High tech for it's time. The background for this display i shot through one of the vignettes with a digital point & shoot Nikon.
Epson R-D1x with CV Color Skopar 25 F4P.
If i were smart enough to shoot raw, I will be able to remove the vignette with Epson Photolier.
f/2, manual focus using live view, The island might be slightly more in focus than the background. Maybe that's wishful thinking on my part.
Vignette inspired by the Coruscant scenes in Andor and brutalist architecture.
Also a further experiment with brick built shadows using flat silver & dark bluish grey
Built for @JakobKaiserMOCs custom works contest, intended for Dedra Meero
Thanks to Brock's bricks for all the flat silver parts.
I dislike brutalist architecture from a idealogical and beauty standpoint, but it can look cool :P
To God be all the Glory
Some funny vignettes with characters of Lego City Mafia that I hosted last year on Doublebrick.ru! Were used to introduce all the cast. Guess who of them was among the Mafia!

A awesome giraffe screenprint picked up at Art Vs. Craft.
A vinyl crib toy picked up in PA at an antique store, SO cute and it's so in tune with the print!

I am lacking old photos (I have one, I think), so I decided to go with the vignette styling, which is kind of storytelling. I like our bathroom a lot - what with the tiles, shelving and our old mirror. I have these postcards I bought in St. Petersburg this past summer at a photo museum, so I decided to use those as the storytelling and art focal point. They feature Soviet era images and hold many stories in and of themselves.
So while this is a different sort of vignette, I think the stories are for the viewer to decipher.
P.S. I did try photographing this with a vignette border on my camera lens (using construction paper), but I didn't like the vignette.
