Irving is one of my favourite photographers because of the vast range of subjects that he’s photographed, and the fact that he’s done it very successfully. The three images that I have posted are some of my favourites because they are executed perfectly and encourage me to experiment with the different areas of the theme.
One of the things that I notice when I look at these
pictures is the variation of lighting setups which is another area that I will
work with when I start with my own photos.
As for the composition; it’s fairly simple, he puts two
light coloured objects in the centre which are balanced by the dark objects in
the bottom corners and the dark patches in the top corners. The texture of the
two dark objects and the jug is very soft compared to the skull which has a
vast range of contrast and tones making it the point of interest.
