You will probably be seeing a little more non-portrait work as I get used to this new macro lens. I have to say that I have a new respect for macro photographers after a series of experiments. The focal points of these tiny worlds could definitely drive a guy to drink.
This is certainly not original by any means. But, I did try to create the shadows that I love so much in it.
See, now THERE is a beautiful piece of work. I love the dark, more different kinds of beauty. I remember, on a play of the rose from Phantom of the Opera, my old friend Luciano (he was from italy) gave me a black rose with a red ribbon tied in a bow around the stem (the phantom gave christine a red rose with a black ribbon). I loved that rose so much... I still have it pressed in a scrapbook... oh I miss him... He inspired me to find the beauty in the world's darkest corners. And even today, I still find myself gazing at a forgotten little Ivy leaf, eaten away by time and bugs, while everyone else marvels at a big red flower. I guess i still haven't let go...
The rose lay in his lap. He sat stareing blankly at it. Not comprehending wht he had just heard
"mr. Conners... did you hear me? Your wife.. im so sorry Mr. Conners" a distante voice said
Jack Conners didnt register the officers voice, it was all very distant. Nothing was real except for the sharp pain in his heart, the pain of it shattering. The tears dance softly down his cheeks, decorating the beautiful sunset like rose in his jeand lap. Reality had completly faded into nothing. only the pale skin of his beatiful wife was there. Her in her black gown. Her blonde hair died red, and lips so tender beneth the violet gloss. Her Once green eyes now glazed. her skin so cold.
He coldnt move. Just staring at his beloved upon the floor. Suddenly he moves. Risng from the spot with the rose in his hand, the drops on slding off. Once to her still body he lays it down on er chest coverd by the soft black silk dress. It slowly became coverd in tears again. The sunset like rose seemed to be standing on water. Becoming a dark Beauty.
looking forward to seeing more of your experimenting ... i reallyl think you'll bring a wonderful, unique eye to this form of photography ... i'm with you on the love of shadows!
