"The Autumn Harvest" Soft/lowtone Macro Still Life at dim candlelight in the style of the Painters of Antiquity. Experimental work by #WhiteANGEL

            - Candlelit Light Painting Still Life-
Another Still life study with soft macro at candle's light, in the style of the antique Master Painters.
Shot in darkness and painted by highlighting portions of the composition moving a handheld candle in a long exposure.

Light study for a soft tone macro still life with some autumnal crop from my garden, from my neighbors and the woods in the neighborhood. My photography is unmanipulated, no retouching and no post-processure but just a slight routine editing.

I have tried to approach as much as possible the effect of the paintings of a time when the electric light didn't exist yet and,  when darkness fell, the painters were used to illuminate the subjects to paint with candles and/or natural torches.
I'd just like to add, once for all,  that I don't use any filters, neither on lenses nor in post-production: it's my exigency to reach the "essence", the pure artistic effect via the sole use of my display, the footage setting preparation and shooting ability. Although I am very picky and stubborn, I don't always reach the result expected, sometimes I do beyond my expectations and in any case I like to experiment until I reach something that may be interesting to me.

  #WhiteANGEL #LimitEdition (max. 6 Groups)

Chestnuts/castagne, hazelnuts/nocciole, pomegranates/ melograni, one persimmon/cako and one medlar/nespola at soft candlelight in darkness with no artificial light spots.
The black background is a physical "limbo" allowing to create a sort of transparency or absence of the background, saving the macro image from any retouching artifact or manipulation in post-processure and enlightening to emphasize the subjects photographed, depicting them with a good three-dimensionality and even a certain deep of field, notwithstanding the limits of the 2D photography.
