Two down and one to go for my ‘at work’ assignment, which is meant to be in for Friday. Work commitments in Liverpool on Thursday mean that I have to actually get myself in gear and sort my last one out tomorrow.
I thought a florist might work quite well so persuaded the appropriately-named Rowan to let me watch her work. The challenges were much the same as for my tattooist – namely me being rubbish at focusing manually, and the limitations of working at ISO 400 and with no flash allowed. The shop was quite dark at the back and I couldn’t move all the way around her in the way I would have liked. Overall I found the pictures disappointing – I imagined they’d work much better, although I think they could be rescued with some post-processing. The shots I like most are the ones the probably fit the brief least – me looking at her from outside, and with mad reflections on the windows.
