The different lighting is very effective here. Are these portraits of scarification or knots found on tree's? Be careful of similar tones repeating. This layout and variation is becoming a very clear and specific idea.......but more, more, more.
This typology is really cool! I like the idea. I know there are a lot of typologies with trees, but not too many that have tree trunks themselves. It makes for an interesting body of work. My only suggestion would be to try and take photos of a few different kinds of trees, like birch or palm. It may take a longer period of time and more traveling but I think if you continue with this body of work, you can end up with a really cool series!!
I definitely like this idea. Every tree is so different with all of the markings and bark tones it's interesting to see those little details up close. I wonder if you could expand on it by taking more and maybe focusing on one mark of each tree? Like knots or holes? And maybe go in a little closer!
These are dark and mysterious and I'm really diggin' it. I like how you chose to get up close and photograph just a section of the tree - the bark. I think this is really unique and and I love the different textures in each subject. I also think it was smart to leave a little bit of the background space so that it is clear what the viewer is looking at, and this also helps give depth to the photo. Are you using natural lighting? Specific time of day? Can't wait to see the final product!
These came out so nice! The way you captured the imperfections in these trees is so calming, even with the moody/ fading shadows. I am just imaging these photos stacked on top of each other to make one large tree! I can't wait to see what other trees you decide to photograph.
I thought of this idea as well but you executed it so well! i love your choice of lens and your attention to framing. i feel like the background of the trees adds another element to the typology. i also like your use of editing and how they are all very close in color tone. it makes you focus on the intricacies in all of the bark which turns out to be very beautiful.
I really like your idea. They give off a very mysterious feeling to them because they are on the darker side. I love Sam's idea about putting each photo on top of each other and making one tree. Great job can't wait to see what else you come up with!
I like the monochromatic quality to this, it feels quiet and moody. I like the photos in the center column that have a bit more contrast on the bark, it's easier to see the roughness and details than on the others where the lighting is softer. I'm interested to see what other features you'll include in this, maybe branches, knots, or bumps?
