Galway: Any interest in a photographic collaboration?

Fenster

Full details

I’ve been working on and off to get in long-exposure crowd shots on Galway’s Shop Street, and after some very encouraging results in the recent past I’d like to move onto the next step: Have one or more people pose for me for a one-hour photoshoot. (Time on the day to be decided based on their schedules.)

The model(s) will need to be able to stand rock-still for five or ten seconds at a time through the exposure, and will be the focal counterpoint to a series of dramatic images showing the flow of city life around them.

I'm poor; this is purely on a volunteer basis. I'd like an hour of your day, and in return you have a bit of my heart for all your life. (<3) You can reply here or on Tumblr, tweet me as @bhalash, Facebook me as Bhalash, shoot off an email to mark@bhalash.com or just give me a call on 086 198 1097.

EDIT: Wow - I've had great interest from boards.ie. If you want to take part in this I really need you to email me so that I can have the ability to push out updates and hammer out details. mark@bhalash.com.



Any takers?

The first shot is a 5 second exposure using infrared, if the exif and tags are anything to go by.

It's like you're some sort of photographic Sherlock Holmes or something.

Lots of lol on this thread tonight.

@AnimalRights: Exif is here. Manfrotto tripod extended to max (column up too). Shot aiming slightly down.

@spinandscribble: Would absolutely love to have you. Bring a tripod. I have some idea for shots.

That's fine on the tripod; I have a loaner. I have one other person confirmed so far.

artyeva

when were you thinking of? i'd be up for that - as long as you understand that you're not getting a 'model' per se - but i used to model for life drawing classes and can stand still pm sent anyway.

Fenster

PM replied. I'm finding some great interest in this. If anybody is really interested in attending on Saturday please email me or otherwise supply me with your email address. I want to be able to push out updates and otherwise settle on schedules.
