Wanted to play around with the vinyls again with the iPhone. I found the last set of photos seemed like product beauty shots. This time around I wanted to try to play more with lighting and dramatic angles to get a better sense of mood. I was very happy with the Hellboy shot. I used natural lighting with a half closed curtain to get the matted reflection off of my flat screen television as a backdrop. Hoping that I will be able to recreate this shot with my SLR camera so that I may be able to make a large print of it. The difficulty in that task is that I used natural light, the SLR is less forgiving and I do not have a macro lens. Will keep you posted...

It is an amazing shot but it will not feel the same if you recreate it. You need to let the technology exist as it does. Blow up the iPhone shot. Pixels are part of its beauty. There are many artists out there that would never try and hide those details that reveal the technology used.
