Sensual Contemplation

Sensual contemplation is how I would sum up my afternoon with the lovely artistic Kiarn. I wanted to test my skills and create some moody yet sensual Black & White Rim Light Photography which was different to my personal style of light and airy or food. Sonny has been doing amazing work out in the field and in the studio whilst on leave however that is for another session.

Basically this is rim lighting and the purpose is to allow the shapes and touches of light escaping around the body to create the outlines and give a suggestion only. We used a range of light modifiers on our strobes to play and craft the light. You will see some are soft and the shadows fall of gradually and in other areas the light is crisp and forms a sharp outline to kiss the body.

Australia Day – Highfields Pioneer Village

Sonny and I decided to go to the Australia Day celebrations at the local Highfields Pioneer Village. It is a purely volunteer run tourist attraction where various machines and cars, tractors etc are restored and maintained. They dress up in the period of time which is pretty impressive considering it is January and the temperatures are pretty hot. thousands of people come to see this place once a year and all they ask for is a gold coin donation which is amazing considering what they put on. You can buy woodfired damper and have billy tea.

 

In keeping with my quest for black and white with a 50mm I took a series of images showing some details. I felt really sad to see these old cars purely a remaining skeleton. I wonder what stories they have to tell. Who drove in them? What journeys did they go on?
