So yesterday was an interesting experience. To say it was bright might be a slight understatement, and for the life of me I could not track down the display brightness adjustment on the new Olympus waterproof camera. When I got back to the car I could see there was some clipping, but decided not to reshoot as framing at -2/3ds of a stop would have been completely blind versus the almost blind of the initial shot. Thankfully I shot in RAW as well as SF jpeg. AffinityPhoto made it really easy to overcome the blown highlights when working from the RAW image. I can see some minor lens distortion which could probably also be addressed in RAW,

Things that go bump in the night.

Another exploration of creating a visual narrative within a single frame where no explanation is needed. I'm so glad that my stepson enjoys getting dressed up and posing for these with me. He and I both learn a lot from the entire processes of storyboarding through to capture, and I'm learning a lot about portable strobes and light adapter use on location too.

Panasonic/Lumix S5 with an adapted Pentax Asahi 50mm f/1.4 (with the radioactive coatings left in play, rather than removing them by application of light as many do with this lens.)

Godox AD100 with snoot and honeycomb, and LED fairy lights in the lantern.

It was a daytime capture, where the overcast and dim sunlight was able to be overpowered by the little Godox AD100 strobe at near full strength. Edited in Lightroom CC, I find that more than enough for all my editing these days since the profound masking changes started getting implemented last year. Luminosity and even intersected masking is a breeze nowadays!

Your images gives me the creeps.
In a positive way!😊
But I’m guessing that the whole idea😁

Very nice @Alexander.Of.Oz!
