dark knight by northy

dark knight

my alter ego? i'm not sure i really think of myself or identify with batman, but i think of the dark knight as a quiet, relentless, self-made powerhouse... ruthless, committed and certain... a force for good, but somewhat balanced on a knife's edge...

for the 5+2 theme... and the weekly mascot theme...
Well, we'll overlook your uncertainty -- let you work out the psychology of your possible inner dark knight (smile) -- and just admire the very cool photo. Great low key image!

You and Graeme Stevens should go together well except he's a bit 'darker' than you!

Great depth and focus. How did you manage that?! It is really wonderful on black.

Great description on a "dark knight". Great B&W shot! I love how your arm fades into the background.

@ksmale tx Karen... i have a remote and the camera has a flip screen... so i am looking at the screen as i am posing... i had already put the "square" that is on the screen, in the spot where i wanted the focal point (if that makes sense)... since i can see it, it's pretty easy to put my hand in the spot where the camera will focus... press the remote, it focusses, and then takes the shot :)

@ksmale oh, and if you're wondering about the lighting - i did a fair bit of experimenting... and in the end, painted on a bit of exposure on my arm in lightroom to avoid a completely disembodied hand...

I don't think the Dark Knight is your alter-ego at all - a quick look though your project will confim that he is rather your hidden inner strength.

Great Low Key. Do you need a challenge or has someone else given you a challenge? If you need one then I challenge you to create a diptych with 1 low key and 1 high key photo.

Beautiful simple image.

Brilliantly creative! Fav
