Skull Series - 001by `krash

Photography / Still Life / Other

Playing in the studio last night with a couple of animal skulls. I love the textures and tones the bones give, these were shot with black n white in mind. I used a small softbox about 3 1/2 feet above the skulls and feathered it off the the left side to give me the shadows I was wanting. They were laid on black velvet with a tea towel underneath to help contour the velvet to the skull as well as to hold it in place as we moved it around.

I will probably release a few of this as full resolution stock images as well.

Super shot! The lighting and composition are outstanding.

thank you, would love to send a fellow skull lover a print if you would like, just note me an address.

*savageworlds Jun 26, 2009

Thanks, John! Note has been sent. Cool gallery, btw.

`krash Jun 26, 2009 Professional Photographer

cool and thank you, but I think yours is pretty fucking amazing myself, I am seriously blown away.

*savageworlds Jun 26, 2009

Thanks, John. I haven't done any new wood carving recently, but I have started working with polymer clay again. I'm sure that skulls will feature among my next sculpted pieces. Might just send one your way.

Dude I totally spaced on this, man my mind is going. Working on that print for you right now, hope you enjoy it!

*savageworlds Jul 14, 2009

No problem.

Been kinda busy myself.

Absolutely gorgeous textures. Black and white suits it perfectly.

Do you have a studio set up in your house now, or elsewhere?

`krash Feb 28, 2007 Professional Photographer

This was shot at the studio in downtown Belleville, St. Louis Photo Company, they are in the building I wanted for a studio.

I will have my in home studio once everything is moved out of here in the next few weeks.

The whole shoot was done as black and white.
