WALL ART Part 1

Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.

With the steady rise of Modernism's popularity in the home, design has been receiving almost as much attention as traditional artwork when it comes to wall hangings. While many would not classify two dimensional design as art, record sales at art auction houses say otherwise. To create your own piece of Modern design for your walls, simply find a colorful linear or circular pattern and take a picture of it out of focus. You will need to have your lens aperture set to its lowest f-stop number. The photo above was originally a colorful bedsheet, focused manually.

One day I was preparing my camera for a photo shoot, and I took a test shot of a venetian blind. My photo was out of focus, so I checked my camera and saw that my lens was on manual focus instead of auto. I was just about to delete the test shot, when I realized that the image had a nice abstract appearance to it. During the next few weeks I photographed many things out of focus, and eventually had enough dynamic images to create a series. It was a good example of serendipitous creativity!

The next lesson is also on artwork for your walls, and will mention printing options.
