3 Point Lighting Recap as an Idea

Posted on by martinbelgica
BANGING OF LIGHTLight touches another is like a union of sensations. A subject when touched by two light sources is like a good old delicious sandwich. 1 point or 1 source of light is not enough to make a good photo. 2 light sources creates a mergence of two light sources creating an extra dimensional feel. Let me illustrate this. In the day we have 1 light source that is the sun and in the night we have the moon. 2 point lighting and 3 point lighting creates the sensation of having an extra dimension impossible to our native or primal senses. Here is an example of 1 point lighting photo. KEY LIGHT See the light that touches the subject...Read More

Just Images of Chivas Playing with China Lux Meters

Posted on by martinbelgica
I bought a light meter from Lazada store made from China. I wanted to test it out and so I decided to take photos of leftover holiday liqour. The Whiskey 12 Chivas. Me playing with the Light Meter. My goal is to just go past 1200 for 1200 lux reading is based on light emitted by fire. Go more than fire was my goal. Here are the images of the Chivas. Goal was to light the Alchohol inside the bottle and provide enough key to expose the brand. Nothing much just another boring day. Something processed and edited.

Light and Imagery Inversions

Posted on by martinbelgica
My last shoot using the studio. Starting march 2024 I will focus on my Yoga practice and do less photography for the website. Thinking of a topic to discuss concerning imaging is the magic inversion. It came to my mind when I was contemplating lens distortions, what can I do with lens distortions to create imagery. Here are my attempts as a general idea. Using a magnifying glass and lenses I managed to create a fractal image. Another Idea is using the same concept but moving the subject. here is an image sample. Playing with the magnifying glass I noticed the convergence phenomenon and saw my Shiva painting inverted looking into the lens. I decided to do a shoot using...Read More

Contemplating the Mindstate of Lovecraft led to Lens layering

Posted on by martinbelgica
One afternoon during the humid weather in Asia, a magus contemplated the horrors of HP lovecraft. Cthulu whispers "I await my coming and so I sleep and dream." Looking forward in the dimensions of perceptions of giant men and flying dragons the barrier of the raining veil the magus sees through the lens in time. What can the magus see through the lens in layers of magnification and filtration of light "Is there cthulu? can I see Cthulu sleeping?" the Magus asks himself. The answer to this is left unknown... Oh what horrors are beyond the magnified lens, the distortions of the notion of cthulu and the writings and ramblings of HP Lovecraft.

Fractal Orgone Pyramid Idea

Posted on by martinbelgica
Hello this is a blog post about the Orgone Infinity Concept Shoot, it is composed of a Citrine sphere stone, a Pyramid Orgone and two mirrors. The basic idea is to just create an infinite look or evoke and expansive feeling when you see the photograph, seeing the artwork behind orgone items I figured this will be a cool blog post. CAMERA AND LENS I will use a Nikon Entry level 3500 camera for this one, a low budget concept shoot for the website. Lenses I used are 11 - 50mm AF-P and 70 - 300mm AF P kit lenses. The two lens usually is with the d3500 camera as a package. AF-P lenses has good AF response and focusing...Read More
