Ian Davis Photography – My View of the World Through a Lens

Welcome

Thanks for stopping by my website. By exploring these pages you’ll get a pretty good idea of my photography interests and efforts. While I do update this site often, I more regularly upload images to Instagram https://instagram.com/iandavis.photography

If you like art, plan to visit a new show at The Colborne Art Gallery. I’m a member of The Colborne Art Gallery (& Spirit of the Hills Art Association Art Association). Our gallery’s fourth show for 2023 is entitled “Autumn – 10TH ANNUAL JURIED SHOW”. The finalists are from all over southern Ontario and their work is quite amazing.

The Colborne Art Gallery is in Colborne’s downtown, just 4 minutes south of the 401 (the Big Apple exit). Hours: 12-4, Thursday thru Sunday. FREE ADMISSION.

In the member’s room I have a new print made up from 4 individual photos.These photos are much different from what I usually shoot. They are “themed portraits” and have a watercolour feel to them. Without going into too much detail, I set up a 5’x8′ white backdrop in my kitchen, used a combination of LED shop lights, 2 off-camera flashes, and placed staggered plants (and a globe) on various stools and stands to create a sense of depth. My intention was to intentionally over-expose the image to allow the models’ features to shine through. I’m very pleased with the result and will work on this concept with others.
