Assignment #10: Spring breaking in
I was actually trapped into some impostor syndrome lately, especially since my most used medium is bw film. How to actually break the barrier of novelty?
I was inspired by the idea of macro photography that was announced in one of the recent calls, but I met the problem of how to actually do this kind of photo in a interesting way using bw. How to render a small detail and not miss the information of colors?
The answer to me is to go deeper on what makes bw meaningful: contrast. What if the subject becomes the negative space of the image, but the limits of it are positively defined?
Obviously everything must be done on analog 🫡 so I used a warping glass on my lens and the sun started dancing reflecting on the frame borders, confining the image while being spot on the centre.
