Double Light witches writers

by Varu & Anna F.

Our work was born for fun, one night in August on a terrace of a house, bored by the summer heat and inspired by fireflies, a game with light, a comparison between two types of photography, digital and analog, which has been transformed in a story: struggle between two witches, between a fairy and a witch, between good and evil, between old and new ...

It was night we wrote with light and from this work a slide show was born, from which we took the photos to participate in the competition.

We have titled the work Double: light witches writers.

And in fact it is precisely with the light that we have written, some flashes and the light of street lamps, of the headlights of the cars that passed under us and some lighters.

Both our digital camera, a Nikon 5400 colpix and our reflex a Nikon F90 had set the same ISO, 100, the times changed according to the image we wanted, from the slow sync shutter speed to the flash sync times, a good preview and a good dose of imagination helped us.

To conclude and make the images more similar to each other we developed the films, which were slides, with the c41 process, the same that is used for negative films, and we modified the digital images a little.

Inside the cd rom, in addition to the 15 photographs to participate in the competition, you can view the complete slide show composed of 42 photographs and edited with music, it is a flash file.

For us Photography is also and above all creativity!

Good vision!
