Description
dedicated to ^serpentinekissthis time with film.
this time with a rollei 3.5 MX EVS Type II ... second roll exposed. all with my little friend.
she likes to pose.
she's a great subject.
then again, all i really wanted to be a director ... and look where it landed me ...
yes ... in hollywood ...
but ... in stills.
whatever.
i'm not complaining.
no, i didn't ever want to be a director.
but ... there's always a hidden director inside all of us.
especially in this town.
i really enjoy looking at Duane Michals' material. the series stuff.
i've done a couple ... but ... a series came to mind when i shot this.
the initial hooked up part.
the ... um ... whatever part.
the ... "i can't believe he talked me into doing this part."
dunno.
thought it was interesting.
shot 1: rollei 3.5 MX EVS Type II. 1/8th. f3.5. ilford delta 400 (+2 at 1600) spot metered for wrist with taking other values into consideration.
shot 2: rollei 3.5 MX EVS Type II. 1/15th. f3.5. ilford delta 400 (+2 at 1600) spot metered for face.
shot 3: rollei 3.5 MX EVS Type II. 1/15th. f3.5. ilford delta 400 (+2 at 1600) spot metered for face with taking other values into consideration.
did i use a spot meter? no. i used an eos1dm2 as a spot meter for an exposure made on a fifty year old camera.

I like this serie a lot. The "love" tatoo on the wrist is just so interesting.
The third shot is by far my fave, so relevant after the two first.

Lovely series, meaningful and emotional.
I wish web/internet/monitors could offer greater possibilities so one can appreciate the real quality of film shots like these. Coz optimisation just takes the 'oomph' out of those IMHO.

Emotional pictures, indeed. Almost as if you were competing with *kentsoul
i used an eos1dm2 as a spot meter for an exposure made on a fifty year old camera.
Rocks. I used to do the same with the 300D for my old Fujica ST701, because I'm a lazy bastard. Unfortunately, it broke down, and I haven't gotten around to reactivating the old Agfa Isoly or Revueflex cams.

very telling, these shots are. the emotion and story they portray is quite intriguing. me likey!

this is awesome, I feel as though the middle one does not really add to the overall effect of the image.. I find that the last two stand out the most and have the best impact on a viewer.
I love the first one 
this is great

i dont see you doing much contrived set up shots. this is pretty convincing. kudos on the photography and the modelling as well

I dig the additional angles. SHould have gone for the total reverse of the first image though, and nude. Pansy. You were scared!

who's to say i didn't ...
who's to say i'd post any of that kind of work here?

These series of Photos really fit well together, and I'm glad they are in a set rather than individual photographs. Each portrays a different feeling or emotion but are part of the same story.
The contrast is great within all 3 photos. Personally, I enjoy the 2nd photo as I feel it shows the most Raw emotion. Great job with all 3. I also like the handcuffs as a prop.

thank you! i knew when i looked at them on my screen...
i'll digress ... these photos were actually across from each other on the contact sheet ...
and remembering that i knew they belonged together!
cheers for the comment!

Nicely done... sequential art...
Now if you can do a story in 22 pages, you've got one issue of a comic book.
Care to try for a Graphic Novel, maybe?
That'd be something to see... with your eye and skill and storytelling ability.
Excellent work, Mr. Weeks. Center panel with the light in the upper left corner melding with the frame... opens the boundaries up nicely. Such expressions on her face...
Great stuff.

comic books are 22 pages? hmm... didn't know.
well .. i'm actually working on the layout on a book with an art director. but ... hollywood stuff.
after that i'll do one without content for the masses.
this model takes direction really really well!
i like that.
cheers mate!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dunno why... seems like an industry standard. 22 pages. I suppose 8 pages are for ads, letterspage, and the like... so that gives it an even 30. Pays the bills.
*laugh* A book without content for the masses! The marketing department will just *love* you!
I don't suppose she had much choice but to take direction well... otherwise, no key!
I take it models that *don't* take direction well are more prevalent? How hard is it for them to understand "go there, pose, look pretty, raise your arm, smile, turn, lean, pout" ? I've seen dogs with longer command lists.
*grin*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanks for the comic erudition, mate!
the marketing department WILL love me for the first one. then never talk to me again after the second one.
no key!
most models i work with take direction very well ... where they shine ... is "how" they look at the camera ... or how they "don't" look at the camera but know "it's" there.
ya' know.
wish my chihuahua knew more commands than the models.

if part one kick ass!
what can i tell about the whole serie?
love her attitude

Cool tryptich. The big white border really enhances the emotion you convey in the three separate shots. I really like the (use of) light in all three shots
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
simple floor lamp with a bulb! but what i love about using that kind of light is that it's the kind of light everyone sees and remembers and has in their house.
thanks mate!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I knew it was lit from the floor, didn't expect it to be so lo-tech
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lo-tech works well, mate!
ask helmut newton.
usually just a 500w photo flood along with ambient.
when you shoot b/w ... light is light is light ... no worrying about the temperatures of said light.

Helmut Who?
Yes, I have noticed that the circumstances for a B/W shot are a little easier than full color. The trouble with the Drebel is that it isn't able to shoot B/W straight in the camera. And yes, I know, film is better, but I am by no means a good photographer (yet) and I have no development skills whatsoever. Maybe, one day ...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah ... come on ... try harder ...
ya' know you want to ....
helmut who! bastard! dutch-amsterdam-hatin'-bastard!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think I want to, yes, but then first I need to get rid of time constraint ... who knows
bastard! dutch-amsterdam-hatin'-bastard! ... and proud of it

that's some interesting work. it is a bit reminicient of duane michaels. elegantly done.

mmmmmm spot metering, my next camera shall have spot metering. Perhaps a 1V or an 3 either or with power booster, could get something older, or cheaper, but I want to buy something new, and something that will last a bit that has some functionality.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
...yeah, the f4s is my meter too...
...series, hmm - might have to give something like that a go - wrap in a bit more fiction than my portraits usually entail - hard to do when i'm trying to look so far *into* the model, but i'm all about stretching my comfort zone...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that's a great meter on spot! tough bitches too!
yes, come on ... do a series ... check out duane michals stuff ...

Very nicely done. Definately a stone set vibe of emotion here. One of the most
