14. blindfolded


Contest goal:
Here’s one artistic challenge for you: take a shot of something or someone partially coming out of the dark. Now careful, this does not mean that you place your subject on a black background and take a photo of it… You must have only one subject in your photo that gradually becomes visible, out of the darkness. This means a part of your subject has to be in the dark still. This is a good practice for playing with light and shadows. Good luck!
