Campus Snapshots: Nanyang Technological University

I wanted the subject to be well-lit enough for people to know who he is, but at the same time to retain a certain amount of mystery as to his identity, so it was quite tricky to shoot. I used a studio strobe and an umbrella to diffuse the light from the right, which exposed just enough of the tattoo design on the neck which is a trademark of the character.

What is a darkroom chairperson?

Hi,

The darkroom Chairperson is the guy who looks after the darkroom and conducts workshops for traditional black and white techniques. Like the red colour room you see in the movies..

Cheers,

Nandakumar

Hello darkroom Chairperson,
what is this B&W photography anyway? How do you guys get rid of the colors? My camera only saves the files in color. Hey and the technique is not so good la, the photo you have in your profile is a bit brown. La.

Happy new year Nanda
the white man
