This is my first assignment.
It took a lot more time then I thought it would..........:-)
I have spent much time thinking about the contrasts around us, and they are everywhere.
Most of the images are created after I started the course, but the last image is captured earlier.
It was created to show contrast between a firefighter and his small pet, and I hope it is as relevant as making a new one......
Sweet and sour:
How could I not turn this into a cliche?
I found out that I couldn't.........
Rough and smooth:
I was thinking about using people in stead of objects, but didn't find the models I had in mind.
The surface of the objects are very different and I think the images describes the contrasts between rough and smooth.
Straight and curved
A big concrete statue was used for the straight lines. I composed the statue with diagonal lines to make it a little more interesting. The curved lines are part of a painted wall. I think concrete looks better in black and white. I was looking for a statue with curved lines when I discovered the artwork. I tried to get some symmetry in the images by flipping the image of the statue
I have always been drawing and sketching . A couple of pencils where used to produce the many/few motive.
Lightning is both from above and below to prevent shadows. Again: I find that diagonals makes more interesting images then images with horizontal or vertical lines.
A stone and a feather on a diffusion layer. They where both lit from below with a remote flash.
The stone is not very heavy, but compared to the feather it is......
The look on the boys face is not very light maybe, but I chose it because of the light gray background. He was in fact in a very light mood during the shoot. It was shot with a studio flash for main light and a small flash to brighten the background.
The dark image is shot during a poker evening. The player was not happy about his luck (or skills)
I guess you can tell from the look in his eyes.......
Both the still image and the moving image are cars. I could possible have done this more interesting, but I hope the point is made.....
This photograph is suppose to illustrate contrast in a single photograph. Either by the difference in physical size or in the fact that humans are superior to dogs. The image is well planned and this is the firefighters own beloved pet. This image was captured in September 2010, but I couldn't help using it. It is one of my favorites. And contrast was the most important element in the image

Transparant and opaque:
I tried several lightning options and the shot took me half a day. I ended up with a soft box 50 cm behind the glass, and one small flash turned up towards the ceiling
The liquid in the transparent image is cranberry juice mixed with water. The opaque one is cranberry juice straight from the bootle. It is almost black in color.
