Candy Stripes by Enrico Bettesworth

My third entry for the 2008 Canon Photo5 Competition. / Two more to go!!! Description / With the lead up to Christmas I thought this idea would be fun. I spray painted a candy cane white and added some new stripes using the red ribbon, giving it a whole new meaning. Photographed on a wood background, extra textures where overlaid and the image was cleaned up and enhanced in Photoshop.
Watching the thoughts go by by Enrico Bettesworth

My fifth and last entry for the 2008 Canon Photo5 Competition. / All done – at last!!! Description / I shot a series of bubbles which I later combined with another shot I took of a work mate. My aim was to represent our thoughts and how we sometimes can look into them too much. The elements were composited together in Photoshop, cleaned up and enhanced and this is the end result.

Old Timers - Frank (Through my eyes) by Enrico Bettesworth

My entry for the 2009 Canon Photo5 Portraiture category as well as another addiiton to my Old Timers series: I used the supplied glasses as a gateway to the life of Frank. Frank is one of the last traditional barbers and has been grooming mens hair for 55 years. He grew up in Greece where his father had a barber shop. During WWII his father was unfortunately killed in an accident and his uncle took over the barber shop. Frank would help out by delivering messages after school. One day they were quite busy and his Principal needed a haircut urgently. Since he was the only one free the task was left to him. Given the opportunity he rose to the challenge and after a long two and a half hours, the job was completed. His Principal said it was perfect and liked it so much he recommended him to others. He opened his own salon in Northcote, Victoria in 1975 and has been happily serving customers ever since with a smile time and time again. Shot using available light which came through a door to his right. I hope you enjoy it, good luck everyone :)

experiment using hundreds and thousands
Glassed by Ben Herman

For Canon Photo5 2009 This image I created using a Canon scanner rather than a camera. My image is a play on the word “glasses” to make an expressive work. I put clear contact onto a sheet of glass and smashed it, then I put my face onto the contacted side whilst looking at the scanner. I also converted to Black and White. © Ben Herman 2009
Will by Ben Herman

For Canon Photo5 2009 I shot this image in a studio when a friend accidentally walked into this light beam shining through a crack in the curtain. I told him to sit there while I shot a few images. This one creates an interesting line along his nose and face. His eyes and expression are lost in the darkness, yet the image still evokes a strong mood. © Ben Herman 2009
Indulgence by Ben Herman

For Canon Photo5 2009 This image I created using a Canon scanner rather than a camera. I wanted to create something funny and expressive using an alternative photographic technique. © Ben Herman 2009
