Studio 365: Day 37

Greetings from New York! Yes, we made it, as those of you who follow the Weekly Photo Challenge already know as I submitted a photo of the Manhattan skyline from our taxi ride in.

How can I be in two places at once you ask? Well, at the beginning of the year my goal was to post an image from the studio every day for a year and so today is no exception.

If you look at the top shelf you will see the perspex box I used for the Daily Prompt: Make me Smile last April. Given that Michelle’s subject for this week’s Photo Challenge is Scale I like to think the photos are worthy of a re-post, as they are all about scale…and hopefully will make you smile again.

Hippocrates II

I thought I would post this variation of yesterday’s image, captured with light painting photography in the studio using an iPhone flashlight, together with a view of the set up. The additional light was added in Photoshop Elements using an airbrush and the text duplicated and then inverted to create the mirrored effect.

Surely worth one more posting?

Colours have a beauty of their own, which must be preserved as one strives to preserve tonal quality in music. It is a question of organization and construction which is sensitive to maintaining this beautiful freshness of colour.
