I'm working on a portrait idea for the Cutlet, who loves Herbie the Love Bug. Actually, if I can perfect this, it will work for paying clients who want something different, too. My photography skills are solid, but looking at some of my work ... the photos are too "standard" and often boring. So in addition to "boring," I hope to offer "exciting" shots as well. Here's some attempts with Batman (who doesn't whine) as a practice model while I was home today.
The key is making the cars look like they're moving, even though they're not. The big Herbie car is actually radio control, but the logistics of snapping a shot exactly when I want to, with the car exactly where it needs to be, with a human model not flinching, blinking or cracking up ... the odds of getting it right boggles the mind. So I'm photo-faking it for now.
What do you think?
