Welcome to Photoreject, born out of my first attempts to enter my work in a gallery many years ago. If you read the title and are concerned if you are supposed to be here, fill out the brief, 200-page survey on page 72. Otherwise, please take a look around my blog posts of recent images of photography "tests" I am conducting as I branch out into slightly new photographic horizons. I will be explaining my thought processes behind the photographs and rambling on about this or that. Hope you enjoy!

Light Tunnel

I submitted this image into the San Diego fair as a student entry. Little did I know when visiting the fair, we received a first place. The placement for the international fair entries are posted online, however the student fair entries aren't; so I wasn't sure what to expect. To state the obvious, I was plesantly surprised. For those curious types, I will unmistify this image a bit. There were three photographers (Kelly, Courtney, and I) working in the dark for four minutes to create this image. The technique we used is called light painting. A photograph is merely comprised of light. Angle, intensity, and quality of light falling on a subject are all factors in producing a photograph. For this image, three people wearing dark clothing are painting the tunnel with light using colored filters while the shutter was held open for four minutes. The people remain invisible because no light is registering off of the dark non-reflective clothing. I hope to continue using this technique with the friends mentioned above in the near future.
