Multi-Flash Portrait

Howdy folks!
With all my exams and hand-overs passed I finally have some time to show you my recent work. Read on to get the (short) story an the pictures

These pictures were the result of an projekt i was doing for my photography-class. We had to do a series of pictures with a pinhole-cam.
Well, as usual most of the class did their landscape-stuff, some of them really good ones by the way.
But I wanted to try something unusual… sharp portraits of athletes in their gear.

I knew, that i would need flashes … many flashes. In fact, more flashes then I was willing to buy. So I ended up mounting them on a pole and did this flash-background thing.

Sadly, but not really suprisingly, most of the negatives turned out way to dark (which means they were bright… but negative…. ah! screw it!). So I handed in my backup-series of close-ups. Luckily i shot some of the athletes with my DSLR, too. Which means I have some of them in a proper light condition.

I will try to scan the negatives on the bad-ass-cost-as-much-as-a-small-car-scanner in my university and to Upload them… my scanner doesnt feature roll-films.

Maybe you want a Slideshow?
