Neon Tulle Light Experimenting
I was working in the studio making these delicate tulle straps for a dress I'm working on and simply rolled it up to see what it would look like in photograph as a sculptural shape.
This was in the back corner of a well lit room, not bright light and the surface is a rough painted metallic silver. Not shiny.
I photograph most things dark, reading light off the brightest part of the subject. These were taken with a 50mm Canon Lens, f/10 1/50 shutter iso 800 and darkend by -12/3
I then upped the blacks in lightroom but it was already glowing in the original. Its a pretty effective way to make neon light if I can do it again.
Vintage Lens Filters
Trying out the vintage 1970s rainbow spot and star lens filters on the 85mm canon lens. I found these in a bundle at a carboot sale and throught they would be fun to play with which they are.
Quite gimmicky but the effects are great especially in manual mode where you can create lots of out of focus patterning. Not sure how to use these other than in a disco situation.
I want to look more at lens filters to create effects in camera mainly for blurred sections, soft focus and adding more texture.
