I went out with the same dancer I photographed with her dance partner so I could continue the theme of the poem and the story behind the images. I asked Hannah to perform her routine but on her own to see what effect it created and there is a part were she stands strong with her arms high and it reminded me of her lifting her arms to rise up linking it with her death.
Below are some examples of images I found appropriate and would maybe like to exhibit.
The image below is the image I have chosen to exhibit alongside my other pieces of work. I feel that the piece of work fits with the images and continues the story and how she is dying, as she raises her hands high ready to go to heaven the fabric symbolises how she is bound by her partner and not being able to let go but also how the important things are in the back and she can move on and up to heaven.
The image below is that same above but I have cropped it shorted so it is more narrow to fit with the other images and how you focus more of the model herself then the background
I decided not to use this one as I felt it did not have the same effect as the images above.
The two images below I liked because of the low camera angle and how she stands tall and she looks powerful but because of the close up and the crop of the dancer I feel that it stands out compared to the other images and portrays the images of how powerful and tall she is. Whereas, the other image with the fabric, it shows that she is still strong and is ready to move on.
Below are contact sheet from the shoot.
Over all I am happy with the image with the fabric, it has metaphoric meaning behind it and fits in with the other images making them link with the poem I have chosen.
