Boxy Head Outtakes

For some odd reason I thought it would be cool to put a box on my head and take a photograph. It then became extremely addicting. Enough so that I’ve actually decided to turn this concept into a photo series. You can view the series on my flickr page. This will be an ongoing series in which I will photograph myself, as well as other models, in normal situations with boxes on our heads. I may even get a big group of people for a couple of shots. That would require lots of boxes, but I think it would be fun. What do you think?

Anyway, as is the usual style, here are the outtakes. These are from one particular sitting, the last image was chosen for my Picture A Day, which you should be following.

The Finding of the Forbidden Treasure

Here are some outtakes from a shot for a flickr group (Mission24) on the topic “forbidden”. I decided to go with a forbidden treasure root. The real reason here is that I have really wanted to try using an object to block a flash that would output directly on me while being hidden from the camera. I was hoping to achieve the effect of glowing treasure. These images are basically straight from the camera with the only editing being some light adjustments. I could have done added more ‘pirate’ features to the photograph in photoshop, but I decided to keep them as is. Enjoy.
