White by monikozi

White

This is a picture taken in colour whit a white paper to bounce light. It is white paint on a white painting palette. I edited brightness, contrast and highlights, but did not desaturate. Sliding shadows did not change anything (except add some shadows). I like how white is not really white. A most interesting exercise.
Very cool capture, nice tones showing off the 'different' whites

@salza well, i think this would be a great exercise for drawing in pencil. :D But i'd rather not :D

Very nice white on white. Out of curiosity, have you looked at the A Year with My Camera site? Her first lesson is all about how the cameras try to expose every photo for 18% gray.

@shutterbug49 i looked for the book, but there was an issue with delivery (not sure if they don't deliver to romania or it was through post not courier; romanian post is a no-no). But i'll keep looking. Thanks for the tip.

@monikozi pencil drawing or as a painting was something that sprang to mind as soon as I say it. Definitely a great exercise for practicing shading.

Thank you very much, @kvphoto

Thanks for the info. So excellent that you did not desaturate.

Yes, a very interesting exercise. It's very tricky because the white can so easily pick up the surrounding colors if not careful. Nicely done!

Thank you very much, @milestonevisualmedia and @aikiuser
The white did pick up the pink in my blouse. Even if i ducked when i took the photo. I only noticed it later on.

This is an interesting experiment in white on white.
If you can’t get the recommended book, you can download a tutorial with a similar title for free from the google play store.
The title: "A Year With My Camera"
You should give it a try.
