Ever seen a blue person?

Basically I used a torch and brought some cellophane, I made a circle the size of the torch and stuck the circle of cellophane onto black cardboard, which had a circle cut into so that you could see the cellophane through the black cardboard. Then I opened the shutter for about 20-25". I then used the torch with the cellophane over it to 'paint' in Jen with the blue colour. It was late at night when I did this, which is why the background is really dark.

oh hey, that is really cool. Now I'm really liking this one . Thanks for description. That's a wonderfully creative idea.

Yea I have never done it before, I got it explained to me in a course I'm doing at the moment and wanted to try it. So I asked my friend Jen to be my model one night so I could experiment with it. Worked well on her with the blue.

It's an interesting experimental portrait imo, not very flattering, but definitely interesting and has a creepy feel. Not boring, that's for sure. I like it!

I played with it a bit more, and made it a bit more blue in the face...not sure if it looks better or worse...I think I like the first one. What do you think?



This one I put a slight glamour blur on her.

I like the first one better, better light in the eyes/face.

Here's the glamour blur one, but i've brightened her face more.



Im a big fan of the glamour blur since my father showed me it (Mad Aussie).
