After looking back at my tunnel vision idea for my photography portfolio, I wondered how I could expand on that idea. Instead of using my Nikon camera, I decided to see what quality of photographs I could achieve with my Sony Xperia smart phone. I looked through my camera effects but was disappointed when I discovered there was no timeshift burst. I must admit, I am not keen on using timeshift burst when taking photos, I would like to think that I could take the 'perfect' shot without the use of an app. Anyway, slightly straying away from the point of this blog.... I came across a circular viewpoint in my creative effects app. It chances the camera view to that of a circle, similar to looking through a telescope or kitchen roll tube. This is exactly what I was looking for to expand my tunnel vision idea. Now, by this point, I had already made the decision to use LED lights as part of my effects. I then thought about shining the lights onto a bath full of bubbles. I feel very pleased with the results and I have named this set of photographs, 'my planets '. The last point I want to make is that, now looking at them, aware of the technique, it may seem more obvious how it was done. If I displayed these photos in a different context without an explanation, I think it would gain more interest and curiosity but here are my results, feel free to comment as it is always good to get other opinions.
