I'm just going through my shoot for the Araki show that was at the Museum of Sex earlier this year. One of my new year's goal is to try and edit at least half of the 100,000+ photos I've been sitting on from 2013 to present day. (The last week I've gone through about 500 - 600 photos.)
This one is from their non-Araki exhibition that was there at that time. Very tough shooting handheld, available light with a fisheye there. Lens is a slow f5.6 to start with, then adapted it is even slower. (What does that make it...f/8? f/11?) Whatever it is I have to shoot wide open, so sharpness and DOF suffer. Then they have dark and contrasty lighting.
PS...don't ask me what the art is. I do like Ellliot Erwitt when he said "I just take photos and hope something comes of it."
I hate recording stuff like text and seldom read anything. I'm the classic...'I just look at the photos' type of person...but I do bring home the GD photos.
A.D. Coleman can do the reading. I will stick with the button pushing.
