alchemy
Almost all of these photos were taken in a darkened bedroom, my world for the last twelve years because of my severe M.E.. The only light comes through a small gap between the curtains and through the bedroom door that is left slightly ajar. The more abstract photographs were taken out of bed (usually combined with a trip to the bathroom). For some shots I did use my bedside torch for additional lighting, but again, there was no other preparation and nothing was moved from its normal place. For example, Firmament 3 is of a red and gold cord haning off a bookcase over the pale blue spine of a book, yet it looks more like a shower from heaven. Finally, a few of the photos were taken of or through the window. I've had no training in photography and all the pictures were edited using only the basic tools in Google's Picasa software, mainly the Fill Light tool.
