So i shot myself

i’m a bit with bjorn on this, i do like it , but the posture, arms and toilet location/position give of a heroin chick fix feal —
the libertines did an album cover that appropriatly had that feal , as did some of the 90s Seatle grunge bands — anyway quality of shot is excellent — maybe a little view of the eyes would have been nice — nit picking cause your good.rmMemberGiven that it’s an absolutly fantastic shot (which it is!)…
Not sure about a view of the eyes. The indirectness adds to the vibe Bjorn was picking up on, which I can understand. With the gaze at the light that feeds strongly back into the shot, it’s got me wondering what’s down there. It reminds me of the breifcase scene in Pulp Fiction … or may be she’s watching the Big Brother Live! at 5am in the morning?! For both these reasons I’d like to have seen what it would look like with less background lighting and just the one point lighting the shot.
Don’t mind the missing head and elbow, but given what’s placed exactly centre image as a result the loo seat should have been up. Seat down, well, it makes the shot look a little contrived.
freshphotoParticipantAliParticipantHey guys, thanks a million for the response, just me throwing some ideas around really – I’m collaborating with a make up artist on a shoot in the next couple of weeks in what seems to be an “Avant Garde” style restaurant…still on the search for a suitable model. Let’s see how that one turns out. :)
AimeeParticipanthey ali. i just saw this shot for the first time.
i gotta say I really like it! defo Sunday Times or something similar.DJHParticipantReally “cool” shot 8)
I love the rock band theme about it – great shot, top class
Dara.AliParticipantThanks Aimee and Dara – this is what happens when you have a bad dose of boredom :). Appreciate the feedback.
FlipflipParticipantExcellent shot Ali.
Definately has a musicy tinge to it alright.
Love the processing too.
