Prelude

Date: November 2002

Medium: Film Photography
(Pentax K1000, 400ISO Ilford B+W)

Model: Suzi

Description:
My original idea for this photograph was to use lines to distort and exaggerate the human form. I used body paint and ambient light from two 500W lamps to achieve this effect. I used a Hoya 4+ filter in the darkroom to boost the contrast.

    As a B&W this image is absolutely awesome. Although I thought at first it was a filter on the light source making the lines on the body. Still a great shot.
