Studio Ballet

March 19th, 2007

I’m enjoying posting some of my older work that isn’t nudes. Don’t worry, I’ll get back to posting figure work again soon. Meanwhile you’ll just have to put up with what I’m in the mood for.

This is an early digital photo. I had just rented my current studio space and spent several months fixing it up and painting to get it to where I wanted it. When the painting was all done I looked at it and said to myself, “This room needs a ballerina.” So I went and found one, brought her to the space and just asked her to dance. This is the result.

This was shot with a 3 mp digicam. Back then it had cost me more than $1,000. It was about as good as you could get at the time without spending many times more than that much money. It prints fine at 16×20. Later I used that camera when I convinced a magazine I was shooting for to try digital. They were skeptical. When the job was done they used all the digital shots and soon didn’t want to see film, only digital. They ran photos taken with this 3 mp camera double truck, across two pages, on a regular basis. Soon I had packed all my film cameras away and was shooting only digital.
