For what felt like forever I tried incredibly hard to create the kind of photography I saw around me, and it always felt mediocre and forced. Then one day I just stopped trying to be a photographer and just started doing what I wanted to see. It turns out it doesn’t matter who does or doesn’t like it. If I do, then I’m satisfied.
Personally, I’m inspired by words and concepts, and more often than not I have no idea where I’m going with something when I start it. If I do, sometimes it doesn’t get there anyway! This is a perfect picture for example of that - It started with “not being able to breathe” and ended up “running from death”.
Thanks Karen, you did a great job. Nice texture and layering which adds to the creepy feel of the image. A great site to find textures is deviant art. I’ll make a tutorial on adding textures and layers to images maybe tomorrow.
Some details about the image:
Exposure: 1/8
Aperture: f/3.8
Focal Length: 20mm
ISO: 200
