Getting Close.


I haven't been taking many photos lately. Guess I think I'm seeing the same things from the same distance. Most of my subjects tend to be mid-range, like this shot. It has more to do with my preference for mid-range shots, I like having lots of context in a photo. So I am going to go close-range as much as possible, just because I need the practice. I need a nice flash. I think I will attempt to make a ring flash, like that of my photo-hero Martin Parr. It makes the light hit fairly evenly, but makes things slightly irradescent. It was used a lot in fashion photography, such as this fashion puppy.
