Justin Quinnell

Justin Quinnell is a talented photographer and is well known of taking smily cam images, slow light images, black & white, and different types of color images through Pinhole photography.  My three favorites on his site he has posted are "Bert", "Dentist" and "Clifton Suspension Bridge".


The content being used in "Bert" is by using a Sesame Street Character to capture a image in Justin's mouth.  The process is when the shutter takes place when he opens his mouth, exposes the photo paper, takes a quick snap than closes his mouth and the image is not exposed anymore.  I have chosen this image because when I was growing up, I used to love watching Sesame Street, and Bert was one of my favorites, as well as Ernie.


The content being used in "Dentist" is by having a visit at the dentist and surprising the dentist with taking a picture of him without knowing.  The process is the same as the one above, Bert, when the shutter takes place when he opens his mouth, exposes the photo paper, takes a quick snap than closes his mouth so the image is not exposed.  I have chosen this image because I enjoy the fact that his dentist didn't know that he was going to take an image of him while being there.  Also, I like that his teeth have a very rotten look to them.


The content used in this photo "Clifton Suspension Bridge" is having the photo paper being exposed, so that you can see the path of the sun which is called Solargraphy.  The process that he had used was by using a film canister or a pop can and had exposed the photo paper for about six months.  I have chosen this image because I like the modern look of the bridge in the photo and that the path of the sun is perfectly angled.
