Abbey Park experiements, without tripod.

I revisited abbey park location, its easy for me to get to so its worth experimenting in this location to get a feel for the camera and technique and such without loosing time traveling somewhere just to find out that it didnt work. Here i experimented more with the holga pinhole and how it is effected by having it off tripod and experimenting with double exposures and movement.

While some of the images didnt really come out, i was rather suprised at how some came out. I really like how the movement and double exposures effect the film and this is ALOT more of what i wanted creatively for my project. They just have a much more darker, tence atmosphere and some are very much abstract. These images are really the kind of thing that i wanted, so im both excited and happy to have found a technique that works and i can use. It is very much an experimental process, i dont know what has and hasnt worked till the film is developed but if i can acheive more images like this i will have the basis for a great project.

the use of tone and the ambiguation of the images is what i like about the images. out of the three shown here, the bottom is my fave. theres just something about this image that makes it to striking. it was a double exposure, but doesnt look so obviously like one. the strange shapes and creation of new shapes. i like how some of the image is still in focus while other sections are just a jumble of tones nicely blended into each other. The atmosphere of all 3 are quite dark which again adds to one of the aims i wanted to achieve with these images, a sence of atmosphere, a sence of what could be there. They visually work better then the other images ive taken before. While its moving away from the idea of the mix of human and places of tragidy, i actaully think i prefer these to that theme. Maybe if i continue with this style of shooting, what im trying to say about the images will become more apparent.
