Experiments with raw photography - Leeds

This was an interesting sculpture in Leeds Cathedral. The flash made everything very crisp; The actual image was an attempt at making a central focus point, which was difficult in the dark. This didnt need editing to get the raw, high saturated but somewhat faded effect.

A skelton seemed to be the right thing to snap a quick shot of in the dark History museum. I adore the lighting & the fact the shadows/dust cast a somwhat grain effect mid expansion flash. The skeleton is the fore image which I thought was pleasant despite the background not being blurred.

Another quick snap of the Leeds cathedral. I was definitely listening to Edmund Butt - Amy Dyer at this point, or at least during the editing process because it's low in saturates where theres not a brightly painted section, the yellow and brows stand out; the over all tone i soft yet the sculpture and architecture is crisp and clear. I also aimed for a low shadow, high highlight so that the whites didnt lose their brightness and the shadow to maintain structure and depth.
