Day 180

After two frustrating daytime photo shoots that produced nothing good enough to share, I had to shoot indoors after dark. I don't like doing this, because I don't have any lights apart from a built-in flash, and that never, ever produces good results. So I have to rely on the ceiling lights and table lamps.

I had an idea for a dark and moody black and white shot of hands making a heart shape, so I went for it. The finished result isn't quite what I had in mind, but it's pretty close. I shall definitely try this one again some time in daylight.

  4. That's great Helen. I love how you experiment and make the best of less than perfect conditions while still producing wonderful images.

    I really like the angular heart shape from organic hands.
