Artists Challenge - Henrik Knudsen

[Catherine Pace]

Although Gigi @gigiz won the Saul Leiter challenge, she asked me to host the next one & being a bit of a challenge tart i graciously accepted he he!

I was looking for contemporary, colour, indoor/outdoor scenes and found Henrik Knudsen, a Danish photographer who works for editorial & advertising campaigns and creates his own projects which are often influenced by film & cinema. His use of light is wonderful - natural & artificial and the colour tones seem to be on the cooler side - his shots often have a narrative content.

Here is his website - you are free to browse & get creative! (please note edit - restrictions to set works lifted ;o)

http://www.henrikknudsen.com/

Challenge starts Wed 18th Dec
Ends Fri 3rd Jan

Please add a note which of his shots inspired your image - hope you enjoy this :o)

tag your entries ac-knudsen

(let me know if i've forgotten anything!)

[GiGi]

[Catherine Pace]

[Mike Gifford]

@gigiz @gozoinklings This is going to be an interesting artist! Thanks you two!

[kali]

oh there is some great stuff in the field and stream and alison knowles ones, my place looks nothing like the city shots he does lol

[Catherine Pace]

@kali66 go for it - there was a lot of specific advertising stuff i wanted to avoid :o)

[kali]

his placement and knack for combining things that produce a dry sense of humour are really great

[Catherine Pace]

@kali66 like the fish!

[kali]

oh I think the advertising stuff could give some people ideas, set us freeeeee lol

[Catherine Pace]

@kali66 oh i could - i just was panicking about choosing finalists !

[Catherine Pace]

@kali66 i have bestowed freedom - now get that huge rubber fish out kali !!
