Based upon the wonderful responses to my posting of 'My Love~Sammy & Anthony' yesterday, I have decided to start sharing with you a series that is far from complete. It all started, like so many things in life, without a plan, just an experiment in trying out the camera under different conditions. This in turn begins my quest entitled 'Voyeurism' which should also be credited to the great American painter, Edward Hooper (1882-1967) and his masterpiece 'Nighthawks', 1942; o/c, Chicago, IL., The Art Institute of Chicago, #1942.51, along with others of the same subject matter that have inspired the series. Credit can also be given to pervious photographers who made it their mission to photograph people without their notice as Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans. It is a challenge for any photographer to walk about with a tripod pretending not to photograph and as in this image I get caught doing so, but not after several exposures. There is a down side to digital in this type of photography, since my ISO setting was for 100, since sound or as in the old days with film, grain for me an undesirable side effect and I have consciously decided not to shot at a higher ISO setting. So I pretend to be looking at books while carefully undertaking a mission of secrecy. I have also debated which size to present, actual or reduced as I have render all previous posts, but when considering the different monitor sizes, it is therefore reduced. Thank you for stopping by. Vielen dank das Sie vorbei gekommen sind. Grazie. Technical Information: CAMERA: Sony DSC-V1, Aperature priority setting to f-8, ISO100, tripod LIGHT: fluorescent, indoors PHOTOSHOP NOTES: An adjustment in 'Levels' and colour correction using 'Hue/Saturation'. The image was then converted within 'Channel Mixer' for optimum control. I did convert it also to a duo-tone, but found that this series 'Voyeurism' would be best served in B&W. Final adjustments were made in 'Brightness/Contrast'. There was no retouching or any 'Artistic' filters applied.
