The above picture depicts all of the unique and unusual items I used for this assignment. The items include a sexy black lace shirt, the wrapper of a Baby Bell cheese, a toilet paper roll, clear pieces of plastic bag, markers, vasoline, white and red netting, and my breath (not pictured).
Figure 1: This long-shot of Chatelherault Hunting Lodge was created by shooting the image through a toilet paper roll. The length of the roll created a soft black vignette, while the seam inside the roll draws the viewers eye towards the lodge.
Figure 2: This shot was taken in the woods behind Chatelherault Hunting Lodge. The trees in this area were already an eerie white color, and I emphasized this ominous feeling by fogging up my lens with my breath.
Figure 3: This image was taken in the woods behind Chatelherault Hunting Lodge by holding the wrapper from a Baby Bell cheese in front of the lens. The red filter brought out seductiveness of the mysteries that lie within the forest. Furthermore, the colored wrapper illuminated the areas where light struck the leaves, while the tree on the far right acted as block to keep the viewers eye from wandering off the picture.
Figure 4: This picture of a flower outside Chatelherault was created by placing a clear piece of plastic with vasoline around the edges in front of the lens. This technique caused the majority of the picture to be very abstract and dreamy, while making the focal point (the single flower) jump out.
Figure 5: I created this image by taking a picture of the back of Chatelherault Hunting Lodge through the white fence surrounding the building. The fence acts a frame around the building, and also gives it an antique-like feel because of the chipping in the paint.
Figure 6: This picture was shot in the woods behind Chatelherault Hunting Lodge using a lace shirt in front of the lens. The lace gives the picture character, while also making it more abstract.
Figure 7: This picture was taken from the path leading down to New Lanark. I shot the picture of the buildings with the fence in front of it to make it more interesting. I then put the picture in black and white to give it the feel of being old.
Figure 8: This picture was taken of one of the water mills in New Lanark. I did not use any filters for this image. However, the water and movement of the wheel make the picture very interesting, and almost like a painting more than a photograph.
