Axel Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Dramatic, expressionistic lighting, absolute depth of field, almost black & white. Our physiologic night vision (scotopic vision) shares some of these characteristics, but not all. Although our irises are wide open, we won't see things out of focus, because the rod cells are not concentrated in the fovea but instead spread over the whole retina (like here). But we would see light sources in full color, it's like "Lum Vs Sat" in Resolve. Nice, I prefer this over he modern "Night for Day" - approach that modern sensors and their lowlight-capabilities provide. Thanks for sharing.

Axel Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 More romantic, captures a mood. Edo shots look more staged, if you know what I mean. A matter of attitude towards the motif. Impressionistic vs. expressionistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 The Edo shots do look staged: they're immaculately composed, the lighting is nice and dramatic as well: but they're a bit too detached for my liking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Members BTM_Pix Posted September 19, 2017 Super Members Share Posted September 19, 2017 Crewdson's 'Cathedral Of The Pines' exhibition is currently on at The Photographer's Gallery in London and is worth a visit if you're in the area. I think @mercer would enjoy this one in particular as I'm sure its a look he'd be into making if he just had the scores of crew and lights that Crewdson uses ! mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to pretend to be more cultured and discuss how I've always loved the surrealism of Crewdson's work set in a realistic world... but I'm not. Never heard of him until now and now he has an exhibition on my Instagram page. But yes, the imagery is fantastic and right up my alley. His take on the familiar and the mundane creeps me out. I have to do some research now. I need to know the camera he uses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extent of my cultured critique of his work at that show was that I wouldn't trust him if I saw him at shop buying a shovel, plastic bags and some lime thats for sure ! I think I remember reading somewhere that he now uses a Phase One system. jonpais and mercer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, I am no expert on his work since I first heard of him an hour ago and only looked at a couple dozen of his photos, but there is an interesting beauty to that series. It's definitely visceral but from the few photos I did see, there is a faded memory angle to it but also perhaps a distaste for rural America. Of course, I just like dem pitures.
