While doing research I came across a scientific photographer named Oscar Burriel. He had a set of photos that illustrated the phenomenon of the soul leaving it's body. I was drawn to his work because it is reminiscent of the theme of Paranormal photography that I'm following. The use of lighting he is interesting because each image is very similar but they are unique to the way the light portrays each ghost with harsh, soft and focused lighting creating different effects. I think I could rework these ideas in black and white and though I don't have that kind of bed or dark setting, I can make up for that by creating a maybe more impressive effect my using longer exposures in the image. Hopefully I can replicate or even improve on the effect these image have on a viewer and build towards the idea I have for my exam piece.
