Last Friday's presentation

The I almost forgot, last Friday I had to present my self portraiture images. I had decided I wanted to include my mohter and my son in the shots. Both of them define who I am in a lot of ways so I wanted to try and capture this in the shots. The first is taken as a single frame with the shutter kept open. I am using a torch to light my face, and then Ethan's.



The next shot is done using layers in photoshop and I wanted to capture the fading of lives. Ethan is young and defining, I am slightly less, and my mum is almost faded, signifying the move towards death. From a 13 year old, to the fifties, and then the eighties.

Life passes all too quickly.
