Happy accidents are always welcome in art! This little bitty was the result of me messing around with my new camera, a Sony Alpha a300. The self-timer was left on and it took several images in quick succession while I rearranged some furniture.
This image is kind of funny for me to look at now. I wanted to rest of the set to present a vaguely visualized woman who can serve as the any-woman, a stand in for the interchangeable female characters in the works I have studied who perish under the gazes of their male partners. Apparently, it takes an accident for me to achieve the look I want.
Here’s to learning how to use your equipment!
