[Rob MacKillop]

Just an experiment...

I like that Rob ...
There are legs for an advancement on it I reckon (ymmv) ...
what about setting a similar thing up with the camera on a tripod. Get her to stay still for the first then do the same as you have done with more and more movement. Then back to still again.
with the surroundings still and the fading between the bluryness of just her head I think it would look even more interesting!

Nice idea, but I think she would just kill me. Much quicker.

I'm currently half way through a fascinating history of the Tower of London and so a video on losing one's head had a peculiarly tantalizing draw for me. Realistically, however, I knew there was going to be some photographic artifice involved and that I wouldn't see an actual decapitation. (I'd never have watched otherwise.) I was a little surprised, though, that Poodle-head has apparently survived unscathed.

Nice work, Rob. I love the dreamy, slow nature of the presentation and the music suits it just right I think.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Brian. It was just a bit of fun. I quite like the music, odd though it is, and wanted to use it in a video. These images seemed appropriate.

Works well and I can see why you'd be keen to use the music - I must explore more.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Pete. Explore away.
