Shapes

Although technologically very clever on the inside, Fujifilm’s EM platesetter is about as interesting from the outside as a modern dishwasher. Not unusually it had also been installed in a very small area in a functional but unremarkable part of the building away from any noise and dirt in the print factory. Not for the first time my brief, a good image of production director Jamie Gilbert and the EM Setter, was looking challenging but I soon realised that with its lids open for maintenance it was a much more interesting proposition and with the careful addition of some light to reveal the shapes, the shot began to come together with the softer curves on the left blending into the harder shapes on the right. A little more space either side would have been nice but I’d have to have shot it on an even wider lens…….and I didn’t have one.
