Ode to Ralph Eugene Meatyard

Below are results of experiments with long exposures and slow film (50 asa). Most shots were taken with a handheld camera and an exposure of 1s or more. Although I have experimented with long exposures before I decided to continue after having seeen examples of Ralph Eugene Meatyard's "no focus" photos as well as long exposure shots from Alexey Titarenko http://www.alexeytitarenko.com/.

Statue with flash, Parque de Malaga, Gordon Haslett

At the weekend I re-shot a statue in the park close to my house with a combination of daylight (early morning shadow) and flash. The Metz flash was mounted on a stand to camera right. The idea is to make a series of figures lit with flash against dark backgrounds.

Forest Scenes, Sippersveld, Germany, Gordon Haslett

On my return from Uganda (see July 2010 posts 'Trip to Africa') I stopped off in Sippersveld, close to Frankfurt in Germany. The cool and dark forest was quite a contrast to the hot plains of Africa.
