Ellie Bergeron -Task #4


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!

  1. Ellie! What a beautiful portrait. I love this shot in black and white. I think avoiding the 'barny' shot was a good idea...
    I 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.

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

  3. 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.

    I 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.
