I'm sure my husband would love to have a TV this zoomed size in the family room! I tried about 20 shots, over various TV channels, until I actually managed to zoom a shot of a static image that was part of a commercial. It took about 3 tries during that commercial to get the zoom even, and the car in fairly decent focus. After I finished, I realized I could probably have paused the picture. But that would have been too easy... Anyway, it's a hand-held zoom with my 24-105 lens for 1.6 seconds.
Ha, there is no fun in easy is there ;) I love how this one matches the colours in the previous days, I feel a concept evolving.
ReplyDeleteThat small red car looks both tiny & dominant by placing it deadcenter and being bright red.
I saw that too, Marga, but I don't think that concept is going to evolve, unless I get lucky..... that puts on a lot of additional pressure, so I think I'll just continue random and see where it leads. :)
DeleteGood shot and idea, you must have long adverts,
ReplyDeleteVery nice! You scored well there having a long commercial with a static image! The colours work really well together :)
ReplyDeleteNice and geometric, gives a good sense of scale and depth having the 2 extremes evident
ReplyDeleteNice shot! I really like the colouring on this one; the light yellows and blues contrasted by the bright red of the car. Very well done, especially if the car was moving on the screen :)
ReplyDeleteI love how you have frames within frames all leading to the car. The car has great focus and I love the yellow and red. Nice technique!
ReplyDeleteVery cool. The bright red in the soft creamy palette is really appealing. And I love how the household furniture is faintly visible. Great impact.
ReplyDeleteVery cool, Carol. I keep thinking that if someone were to look at this in the future they would say the artist was making a statement about how advertisements invade the family home and entice people to desire that beautiful red car. Sometimes I see documentaries of what different artists meant when they painted this or that and I always think, or they felt like painting and yeah, there was an apple and a pair in their cupboard. Okay, enough with the rambling. I like the image and how the glow from the tv fills the room yet still leaves a background to see. Very nicely done!
ReplyDeleteA stylish abstract style shot with the geometric shapes and that awesome red car in the centre. well done!
ReplyDeletevery subtle surround . well done.
ReplyDeleteNice high key shot... and look at those perfectly straight lines. You must be a pro :)
