Project 365 - Day 16

I'm really beginning to like taking abstract shots of things. It gives a lot of opportunity to try different things. So here's another "abstract" picture. I took this one because I liked the repetition of the circular pattern. Geometric shapes can be really inspiring !

Project 365 -Day 12

Another try at black and white photography. This time it is a human part shot, most specifically the hands, as you have noticed, of my daughter Eva (which I posted a portrait earlier in my 365 project). I'm quite glad how it turned out. She's often looking at her little hands, and I think the position of her hands is quite expressive here. I chose to turn this one in black and white mostly because of the noise on the pictures. I took it with my old Nikon D3000 which doesn't really handle well high iso. It's also a good exercice for me to practice black and white because I'm a colour lover and I seldom do that.

Project 365 - Day 2

 Here's my second picture of my project 365. It's another minimal/abstract shot, this time taken in my bathroom. I'm not so happy with it, though I think there's some idea in it, but that's the best shot I took today... Anyway, it gaves me the opportunity to play with the square format, which is a really hard format to use I think. Don't hesitate to leave some comments to tell me what you think about it !

Project 365 - Day 1

So, as the new year begins, I've decided to jump on the train of the project 365. I can hear you wondering what's this all about. It's simple: the goal of the exercice is to take one picture a day during 365 days. Some people take a theme for their project, and some don't. In my case, I won't take any specific theme, my objective is to practice photography in domains I'm not familiar with. But don't worry, I'll still post pictures of urban explorations... ;-)

Well, here's my first picture (taken yesterday, so I may post a second one today). It's been taken in a museum in Brussels, I was trying to get a minimalist/abstract shot. I also put this picture in black and white, which I find is really difficult to achieve, I mean a real beautiful black and white, not just a desaturated picture.

For those interested, my urban exploration pictures are still available on my photography website.
