As regular visitors to my photostream will know, I struggled greatly with last week's Sunday Challenge, which had the theme of high key.
Thankfully, I found this week's challenge of low key much less stressful.
And whereas last week I introduced you all to Gerald The Dinosaur, this week it's the turn of Harry The Owl who is one of three metal owls that make up an ornamental sculpture to be found in our back garden.
He's the furthest to the right of the trio - hence him being called Harry ... the other two then are, as you may have guessed, called Tom and Dick.
I took the shot outside after 10.00pm last night once it had got dark - heaven knows what the neighbours would have thought if they saw me. I had the camera on a tripod and for a change worked with manual settings throughout ... even the focus!
As for the key light that was a small pocket torch that I had positioned to my right hand side behind a small board of MDF so as to stop any light spilling onto the foliage behind where I'd positioned Harry.
Best of all as far as I'm concerned is that I've posted this pretty much as it came out of the camera. The only 'work' done on it was a slight crop and I 'dodged' the white in his eyes just a smidgen as I felt they were a little flat.
So, there you go, not quite SOOC, but pretty damned close!

Harry is simply a hoot and this could easily be a really great children's book cover. I love it! I"m glad it wasn't as much stress as the high~key.
(I did my shot at night too. I was out crawling around with my flashlight to illuminate the bunnies lol)
