For this weeks assignment I as really inspired Olaf Breunings body paint and "smoke bomb" gallery. Originally, I planned on taking this image in colour, but I hated the colour contrast together ( it kind of reminded me of barny......*nightmare*) Therefore I turned this image into B&W and was pleased with the outcome of it. I might try to shoot this image again but with different colours! If I do, I will surely post it again!
Ellie! What a beautiful portrait. I love this shot in black and white. I think avoiding the 'barny' shot was a good idea...
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to see this with different colours - it would look almost like 'Holi' the Hindu festival with the different colours of powder (http://lineageyoga.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/holi-festival.png) and it would look just like that one Olaf photo.
Very, very nice.

Love the texture and lighting. For jokes I would love to see the colour version because Barny's amazing; this is looking really beautiful.

So so SO beautiful! Honestly, if you hadn't have said, I would have thought this image was shot in colour and the model was wearing black soot. The quality and angle and expression in this image are all so nice.
ReplyDeleteI wont lie. This image made me drool a little.

ps - If you really wanted to try changing colours, I would experiment in Lightroom with the hue sliders, and if that's not enough, you can change particular colours through photoshop - I wouldn't bother reshooting this though, I think its nice on its own, as your own twist onto Breuning's work.
