Another from a series of shots of model J K taken in Oxford in the week between Christmas and New Year. We thought a Winter themed shoot might be something a bit different for both of us. We spent most of the shoot in University Park but then headed into town in search of some different backgrounds.
Given no one expressed an opinion to say they thought my previously uploaded colour version of this was too dark I thought I'd take a further step towards the Gothic.......

For this shot I thought a sepia conversion would work well and make more of a feature of the various textures.

Next I'm going to upload a series of shots of model J K taken in University Park in Oxford. The shoot took place between Christmas and New Year so we thought a Winter themed shoot might be something a bit different for both of us.
Not sure whether I prefer the colour version or this sepia conversion.......

Another version of my previous upload, but mirrored, 'toned down' a bit and cropped to a square format to make the most of Jordan's striking eyes.

I think this wall of Gods Own Junkyard in particular has been used as a backdrop for various pop videos, possibly including one of Dua Lipa's first promos.
Gods Own Junkyard is tucked away on an un-prepossessing Industrial Estate in Walthamstow, E17. Their family owned neon Art Gallery is well worth hunting down even if they don't allow photography with DLSR's (albeit I couldn't resist sneaking a few......). On a practical note, it's only open to the public Friday to Sunday and the Rolling Scones cafe contained inside is pretty good.
You can see more neon in my 'Signs' set : www.flickr.com/photos/darrellg/albums/72157627918592935
From www.godsownjunkyard.co.uk : "Chris Bracey has been the Neon Man for 37 years creating iconic artpieces for David la chappelle, Martin Creed etc. With a cult following in London and Los Angeles. New & used neon fantasies, salvaged signs, reclaimed neon signs, old movie props and retro displays. Neon art made from found objects, retrieved and renewed waste and lights. Fairground & circus lighting, architectural sign salvage. Led & cold cathode luxury products. Designers & makers of all things with light.
Chris has made, installed and collected signs that have appeared behind some of the greatest stars. Tom Cruise in Eyes Wide Shut, Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Jack Nicholson in Batman are just a few that have appeared alongside the collection. When the film is rapped neons are discarded like yesterdays newspapers, unwanted, unloved. Chris has collected these neon and bulb icons and salvages old neons and architectural advertising from the streets before they disappear forever. Repaired and resurrected, coupled with quirky art and powered up to shine like jewels of light. Icons in their own right, Gods own junk yard where neon never dies."
