I am a fan of olden things though. I think it's my next favorite thing to shoot, right after nature. There are just so many wonderful textures to be found on the surfaces of aged stuff.
There is also something very attractive about things that have been made by hand. They're not perfect like the massproducerad stuff you see everywhere nowadays, and those little "imperfections" make them much more interesting. A little wonkiness, asymmetry or a crack or two... nothing wrong with that. Great stuff, it shows character :)

Potentially an explosive shot :-) I find the tilt in the background horizontal a little disturbing though.
ReplyDeleteYour background work was well worth the time. Definitely improves it. And I agree about the authentic sort of look that old stuff has. Definitely believable. I think that they should rough up and dirty up the skull and writing though, to make it even more believable! But I wouldn't suggest that you do that for them. They might arrest you!
