Smoke Face

OMG! these images had me on the edge! i had borrowed a smoke machine and was in the my colleges dark room, but there was a fire alarm in there, and i was sooooo scared that the smoke was going to set off the alarm. but anywayy... carrying with the idea of a submerging face i decided to try the same thing but with smoke! and here they are!

Submerging Faces

With these images, i filled the bath tub with 8 pints of milk and the rest with water, i had almost drowned justin with this lil experiment but the out comes are amazing! i really like the face submerging from the misty water, love it!

Slow Shutter Speed Distortion

i took these images with a slow shutter speed to create and ghostly, erie look to them. At the same time i put a pair of fishnet tights over his head.

What do you guys think!?

String Distortion

This time, i initially wanted to use rubber bands but didn't have any around so i used string and just wrapped it round justin's head tightly, and again these are the outcomes.

What you think?

Icing Sugar Distortion

So carrying on with my Photography project, i tried another way of distorting the face. this time i made a huge bowl of icing sugar and put it on justin's face. it had eventually dried and cracked as he move his skin and these are the results of the little shoot i had.

Distortion - Photoshop

With these i used Photoshop to enlarge certain features of the face and place them back in the 'correct' areas. They have created another way to distort the face.

Underwater Distortion

These are images i took from my new project on Exploration and Discovery, the inspiration from this has come from first looking at found faces in the world around as and then from looking at the work of Francis Bacon and how he used his brush strokes to distort. i feel i have created the same effect.

'Justin'

After harsh criticism and being what i called 'Creatively Bruised' this week i think i have produced something that i think will really impress and reboost my confidence in creativity.

I currently have a theme of Identity, and i must be honest i was no way inspired by this theme. but after taking these pictures im feeling confident.

These are my Black and White Portrait photos of Justin Cuthbertson.

tomorrow i shall have more with a very sexual model ;)
