A time of darkness...with some light

The light faded and, because generally the lack of light means it's dark, darkness fell. I looked around and thought, it's a time of darkness, and figured I'd spend some time lurking there...with my camera.

Ok, none of that happened at all, I wanted to grab some black and white shots of my Casio G-Shock Mudmaster and thought I'd try some low light photos which came out way better in my mind than they came out in these photos but that's ok, I don't really care because I think these shots came out ok considering they were taken by someone with sub-optimal photography skills.

I had the watch in my light box but didn't turn the light-ring on for these shots as I was twiddling the dials on the camera to get the effect I wanted...or something that resembled the magnificent effect my imagination had conjured up. I changed the background from black to white (see last image) and played around with the dials to adjust the light (see image below) and at the end realised I was still a pretty shit photographer but I'd had some fun.

    Good shot my brother, I see that the G-SHOCK brand watch is very good, especially the original one, of course, the price is very expensive, until now I have not been able to afford it.

  • @duskobgd(74)· 768d

    Interesting shots 🙂 I can think of another option that I would photograph... I would hold the watch in the sun for a minute, then take a picture of it in complete darkness, to see the fluorescent effect on the hands of the watch and the details at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock 🙂

  • @avdesing(80)· 768d

    Most important of all, have fun in the process, enjoy it. That's what matters, plus you gave different approaches to lighting!

    My favorite is the second one, where there are many grays, similar to life, with its ups and downs.

    Nice shots!!!

  • @relf87(76)· 768d

    Even though personally I am not a fan of watches, these G Shock watches look so beautiful and well made.

  • @tinabrezpike(75)· 768d

    Oh, G-Shock :) Interesting subject to choose for photographing. Black and white settings can work wonders. The second photo is the best! And you have an Olympus camera, so you can play with the settings all day if you want :) I love different types of lenses. For some time now, I've been looking for a lens of at least 500 to 600 mm to capture the moon, but they are unbelievably expensive.

  • @coinjoe(72)· 768d

    Nice watch. Nice photos. Been thinking about getting a light box myself and playing around with it for my coin photos when I post them.

  • @seki1(71)· 768d

    It looks dope... Its been so long since I had on a G-shock watch, made me realize just how aesthetic they ate with their rugged design 😂✨

  • @bozz(83)· 768d

    It's crazy how many different settings there are to play with. We were trying to get some specific colors in our photos last night and I was kind of flying blind trying to figure out how to get the best effect.

  • @ryivhnn(73)· 768d

    I think they came out pretty alright. Doing low light/dark stuff is HARD.

    I'm having flashbacks to when my brain decided low light practice was an amazing idea and I was churning out lots of terrible low light drawings XD

  • @outwars(72)· 768d

    I think these turned out great. What you did with the second photo is awesome. In all the other pictures, the watch looks black, but it looks gray, even almost white in the second one. When I look at it more closely though, it becomes even more interesting. The top part looks white, but going down, it slowly turns gray in the middle, and then becoming black at the bottom.

  • @marceloarce(50)· 768d

    Hola Felicitaciones por las fotos que marcan los detalles

  • @anonymous02(66)· 768d

    Woah I didn't know that you're also good when it comes to photography. These images are good for advertisement!
