on the easel
Kim Denise
so, I couldn't think of anything interesting for the newest Iron Photographer project--and I hate to miss them. Then I saw my masking tape near the easel, and I figured what the heck. I can kill two birds with one stone here--show off my new piece and take care of IP30. The tool is the pink and blue baton, which I use as a mahl stick (to rest my hand on so it doesn't drag through the painting). The painting is soft pastel, just finished two days ago and still on the easel for adjustments.
The Iron Photographer Challenge
Here are the elements for Iron Photographer 30:
1 - a tool
2 - something rolled up
3 - cinematic aspect ratio
The first element, a tool, ought to be self-explanatory...but almost certainly isn't. Generally, a tool is a hand-held or hand-utilized implement used to improve performance of a manual task. We're always willing to consider other definitions.
The second element is something rolled up. You may be asking yourself "What the hell does that mean?" Well, you get to figure that out your ownself.
The final element is a cinematic aspect ratio. This is moderately technical. Aspect ratio is the term used to describe the relationship between the height and width of an image. It's usually expressed as "X:Y" or "XxY." For example, the traditional 35mm aspect ratio is 4:3...four by three. That's also the aspect ratio for traditional televisions. Widescreen televisions and movies use an aspect ratio that's wider, such as 16:9. We want your photograph to be cropped to a cinematic aspect ratio. We don't care if it's exact...just get it close.
