Creativity sure has no boundaries. All you have to just put your head into a certain matter and then it’s the sky that’s the only limit. And when you’re a photographer, you have the advantage of materializing your creativity and capturing it in a frame. This is exactly what event and portrait photographer Niki Phillips did when he took the following image:
“Reflecting Back at the Universe” by Niki Phillips (Via Reddit. Click image to see full size.)
Phillips shot the image with a Sony A1 and Sigma 85mm Art lens at f/2.8, 1/60s, ISO 250. And if you’re wondering how he was able to execute this brilliant shot, the details are interesting.
Phillips actually had his wife put a fish bowl on her head and pose in front of a TV with a space wallpaper on it. He also used a Godox light behind her on the floor for the purpose of illuminating the background. So, although it looks like the subject is looking out of the spacecraft window, the reality is far from it – excellent execution we must say.
“I very much wanted to create an astronaut-type look. I like how it turned out and hope you all do too.”
It is also worth noting that Phillips went a step ahead and added the stars in the background in post-production. Besides adding to the depth, it has further added to the “authenticity” of the image.
In fact, the image looks so good that one could easily confuse it for being a movie poster. Even Phillips’s wife looks no less than the main character in the astronaut movie. Hats off to the photographer’s creativity and brilliant execution skills.
