Agreed. How was that done volantangel, if I might ask?
Haha are you ready for a lecture on photography ?
Equipment used
1 x DSLR
2 x Bike lights (1 white 1 red)
1 x lifted grilled platform (the thing the deck is standing on, was part of a bedside desk)
?? x Books or 1 x tripod
Camera Settings
Aperture F11
Shutter 8s
ISO 100
Method
This shot was done in a dark room (any room at night basically). The deck was made to stand at an angle on the grills. I had my camera focused on the deck, and level with the deck using a couple of books, important that its not hand held and is sitting on something or on a tripod so that you dont get shaky photos.
I placed the white bike light under the grills shining up at an angle so the light comes in through the grills to have that effect and light up the bottom half of the deck. i held the red bike light in my hands and have it shining top-down and into the deck on the left and upper half of the deck.
Inspiration/Ideology behind the photo
The red was made to represent blood/fire(destruction) on which an empire is built, after all the carnage we start to see a glimpse of the glory from the birth of the new empire represented by the white light.
