Darknights

The memories had always been with me and it had faded somewhat but I remember them and have always had a soft spot for these special memories. I had always thought it normal to retain memories as a baby in my mother's womb. Others can remember as far back to when they were 2 years old, where as I have memory of my time in the womb. However sporadic, the memories has faded a bit over the years but there are very strong memories that will never fade away. The womb and its contents are truly designed for comfort and growth. There is the sense of floating in a heavenly paradise cocoon of warm, thick and calm orange liquid of bubbly flotsam. I recall an orange casts halo of light from a distant that highlighted the watery cocoon of bubbles and grainy debris softly swaying in the soothing muck. Muffled sounds from outside are barely audible but a symphony of echoing bubble bursts and bubble gurgles and sloshing water are a constant companion, gently issuing to the gentle swaying of the comfortable womb. The memories are of when I am awake which probably explains the sporadic memories as I am asleep most of the time and awareness came about in the later stages of growth whilst in the womb which explains the lack of stored memories. Conversations around these memories were rare and far apart and when it did materialize, I am always confronted with disbelief and accused with fabricated memories. My memories are of utter and complete security and comfort in an environment dedicated only to growth. There is also a sense of assurance like your guardian angel is ever present and has you under her protective wings, perhaps it is not an angel but God Almighty preparing you for your journey into the world of man.

After several trials and errors and model difficulties, I was able to achieve these images. The silhouettes of my grandsons turned out really well. The off camera speed-light on a light stand was placed diagonal and just behind my models and I had set the inbuilt speed light reflector to stop back light leakage and had set the speed light head vertically at a power strength of 1/128th. The model positions were critical in achieving the sharp light cuts on the dark background.
