Garry's Colorful Light Portraits
Hey everyone! š Today, we're diving into a fun little photo project I did: capturing Garry (my adorable subject) under different light colors. I was curious to see how the lighting would affect the mood and overall vibe of the photos, and honestly, the results were pretty cool! š Join me as we explore the world of color and light, and how it can transform a simple portrait. Let's jump in!
The Experiment: Garry and the Rainbow š
So, the whole idea started with a simple question: how does colored light change the way we see things? š¤ And, of course, I immediately thought of my trusty muse, Garry. The goal was straightforward: take a series of photos of Garry, each illuminated by a different colored light source. I wanted to see how the varying hues would impact the colors of Garry, the shadows, and the overall feel of the image. For this photo session, I used a set of color-changing LED lights. These lights allowed me to easily switch between a spectrum of colors, from vibrant reds and blues to softer greens and yellows. I played around with different light intensities and angles to further explore the impact of light on the photos. It was so exciting to see how something as simple as changing the color of the light could dramatically alter the mood of a photograph! š¤©
The setup was pretty basic. I found a cozy spot in my living room where I could control the lighting. Garry, being the superstar he is, patiently posed (well, mostly š) while I experimented with the lights. I took a series of shots, carefully adjusting the lighting and camera settings for each color. The whole process was like a fun exploration of color theory and photography principles. It made me realize how powerful light is in shaping the final image! š” I learned that the color of the light can completely change the feel of the picture. Bright colors like red and blue can give a lively feel. Soft colors like yellow and green, can give a natural feel. This experiment showed me that photography is all about using the power of light to create different kinds of art. From this experience, I was able to play around with light even more. So cool right? š
This project was more than just a fun experiment. It was a great way to learn more about photography. It helped me get better at using my camera and understanding how light affects pictures.
