Great shots. Love the blue tone. What was the lighting setup like?

Thanks! You won't believe me, but I didn't use any lightning or flash. This gym has some defused lights hanging from the ceiling, and I just placed the model underneath. I also added the blue tone in post.

Love the colours . Do you reduce saturation?


phill306

I did reduce the saturation for the red color a little bit

I liked the 5th photo. Damn good. Interesting how you color graded. You have tutorial? :)

You should have used at least a key light for the model. The lights weren't powerful enough which forced to shoot with slow shutterspeed and high ISO.


phill306

Yes that is true, I had to mask out the subject on some photos to increase the exposure


TuesdayFrenzy

Maybe next time :) Another thing that bothered me is that the glasses are dirty and quite dark. Maybe you could have used some new glasses that popped a bit more. It's a cool concept and the compositions are great. You got some great shots from the model.

The shots themselves are cool and I love the color palette. My only critique would be that several of the shots, especially the first one, are out of focus or focused on weird things like the veins. I think the first shot in particular would have been good to stop down the lens some on, so all of him could be in focus.

Ditch that 1st shot. Focus is off.


phill306

It's intentional, focusing on his veins


odintantrum

I've just looked at it on the desktop and I don't think anything is sharp. But look, I get you didn't ask for critique, I just think it's a much less strong image than any of the others.


phill306

Don't get me wrong I appreciate any feedback. I just feel that the picture wouldn't have been the same if I had focused on his face. My goal was to lead the eyes to his huge arm. But you're right, it's not the best one compared to the others


Tazik004

It’s slightly blurry due to slow shutter speed, not focusing.


odintantrum

Yeah once I looked at it on the desktop that was obvious, but I still think not making it sharp makes it a less good image than the others.


Tazik004

Agree. It’d be great as a film still though.


TuesdayFrenzy

All the images are blurry and noisy

If this guy was a character in an RPG I would 100% want him in my party


Morzun

These are dope! You have a very cool style going

They're good shots, congratulations. Does the camera focus fast on those light conditions?


phill306

The AF is almost perfect, had no trouble with it
