 “Little Red Cup” by Shlomi Nissim.

Inspiration. Another take on “Little Red Riding Hood”, a favorite children’s story of mine, and believe me I have many. This could not possibly be Photoshopped. It looks entirely too clean, too real. I adore the colors, dof and wildly imaginative concept. What a gorgeous location too! This takes my breath away…

Brookeshaden is undoubtably one of my very favorite photographers that I have found on Flickr. Her work with textures is inspiring as is her endless imagination. I love the intensity and poetry in her photography and after viewing any of her images I find myself thinking about them for a while afterwards.

This was taken at Cannon Beach, Oregon, sometime in 2010. A magical afternoon and evening spent with my two teenage sons, Daniel and Sam. The beach was packed with photographers and tripods and general beachcombers. I really began shooting when the sun was at it’s lowest and, looking around me, I was surprised to discover that almost everyone had suddenly vanished and I was almost alone. To achieve amazing, deep color I knew this was the time to shoot but, honestly, I still questioned myself. Lesson for the day: Follow your gut instincts and go for it.

INSPIRATION

I want to create tones like these.

Forbidden To Fly, The Angel Wept For All Eternity

This came together rather quickly, especially compared to some of my other textured works. When creating this I purposely worked fast and not meticulously as I am apt to do. I wanted the end result to be something gritty, raw,… edgier. Often, I can work hours on a single photo( sometimes driving myself crazy!), continually redoing, perfecting until I have something closer to what I want. I am learning though that less is often more.
