The Cruelest Cut
Meera Sethi
An old pair of work gloves and what is apparently, the internet tells me, called a "coping saw." Whatever it is I think it's pretty. I also think the colors here are really pretty, and I even like the fact that the objects in the frame are centered. I almost never do that, but it works (for me) here because the straightforwardness of the composition is offset by its slightly surreal tones.
By the way, these are my first Iron Photographer experiments (note that that link takes you to the previous project, since this one hasn't been published yet).
The Iron Photographer Challenge
The elements for Iron Photographer 17:
1 - an article of clothing
2 - something metal
3 - shot from a high angle
The first element, an article of clothing is just that. Something you'd wear on your body. We don't want it ON your body; we just want the article of clothing. It must be recognizable as an article of clothing.
The second element, something metal, is also pretty self-explanatory. It doesn't have to be entirely metal, but it should be primarily metal. The metal thing should NOT be the article of clothing (for those of you who were planning to take photos of your suit of armor).
Finally, the photograph should be shot from a high angle. We're not going to elaborate on that too much; basically we want you to take the photograph looking down on the subject. You decide on the actual angle.
