I decided to enter this image because although I was not happy with the background, I like the idea and the way the dancer and the fabric and formed while photographing the image and have therefore, decided to enter the image based mainly on the idea on the image
The above two image are similar but I like the tone and texture of both images and the form the material has made. I will enter both as single images as the other images similar the these two are not as good with regards to the form of the fabric and the lighting.
The images below, are examples of work I captured and was planning on entering in to competitions but when I looked closely at them I decided not to enter then because in comparison to the images above I do not think they stand out as much and have minor flaws to them . Therefore, I have decided not to enter them into competitions.
I decided not to enter this image as I like the fact that her face is hidden and you have to look closely at the image to try work out where it is but the image is too dark and the form of her body has too much grain and in comparison to the others I decided not to use it.
The two images are above I stretched the latex fabric and using a back light asked the model to hold positions. I liked them to begin as I thought they look very surreal but after looking close at the image you can see certain marks on the fabric that distract you from the shadows
The above images I didn't enter because my person brief was to use fabric and dancers and the images above do not use fabric. With the image above I wanted to be a little more creative and try some techniques such as over laying and the use of shadows. Therefore, I have decided not to enter these images in to a competition
The above two image I haven't entered into a competition because even though they include the use of fabric I felt compared to the first image in Blackpool it didn't have that same effect. The first image you can see her face and the fabric is to high up and is not covering all her leg like I wanted. The second image I don't like how her leg isn't straight and although she is jumping her legs sticks out at an angle and personally I feel it looks to artificial.
Overall, I am happy with the images I have created and I have enjoyed capturing them. With the experience of working with the fabric, I want to expand to try and create the images I had in mind using a large format camera and a dancer with fabric. I will be continuing this idea further after the deadline
