Stilleven
Alternative ending
The beast is slain
The last one from the LEGO series, at least for now…
Here’s an alternative ending for “slaying the dragon”…
Slaying the dragon
One of the assignments we have to do for school is a still life image. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while now and after hours of trying and testing I’m still not quite there yet, but the results aren’t that bad either. So I thought I’d post a few for your entertainment 
The pictures seem to tell a story but I’m not quite sure how it goes yet. I might elaborate on this and shoot the missing scenes. If anyone feels like making up a little story around this I’m open to suggestions…
After the beast is slain the noble warrior claims his prize…
Enjoy!

One from the archives.
When I did the smoke shot a while back I got like 400 shots but only managed to salvage a few of those as being fairly usefull. This is one of those few. Hope you like it..
Same setup as before:
Snooted Canon speedlight to camera right at 1/8 power
Smoke created with essence stick
Texture
My attempt to capture different, contrasting textures. On assignment for photography class.
Technical
- Kronenburg, Germany
- Natural light
Canon AE1
First attempt at multiple exposures.
Model: Analog Canon AE1 with 50mm 1.8
Technical
- Vivitar 285 HV with blue gel for background
- 430EXII for about 3-5 exposures at 1/64 in combination with piece of printing paper to simulate softbox-effect
- Black velvet as floor and black cotton as backdrop
HTC 4350
I love to experiment with my (remote) strobe(s) and my softbox. This time it was my thrusty HTC phone that appeared before my lens. I think the shot turned out ok.
Technical
I used a 40x40cm softbox with red backdrop inside.
1 VIVITAR 285H at 1/16 to the left.
Appearantly the VIVITAR flash is still quite powerfull at 1/16 when you’re going for an aperture of 5.0 (Because I wanted the shallow DOF) so I had to user 4 layers of white translucent material to lower the lightintensity.
