Photoblog - day 22, May 2, 2010

Experiment with the Dark:

What I tried to achieve here was to have minimal brightness - thus allowing only only certain portions of the objects to be recognized by their silhouettes or portions outlined by what little light reflects on them.

I placed things I usually wear or bring with me as the subjects after realizing that majority of them were likewise black or dark. It was my hope to have all these items almost blend in the background - yet still be recognized by their minimal outlines.

I could not find the proper setting to do this with the camera - or more likely, I still have to find the perfect setting, so I relied slightly on my photo-editing software to adjust the contrast and lighting further.
