I was asked recently by a friend of mine to do some promo shots of his band. Homework, who are fronted by Oliver Kass are earning recognition as one of Scotland's next top bands having already played at T in the Park. The band members are all excellent musicians in their own right and are beginning to forge their careers in the music industry having all studied at Napier University (or Edinburgh Napier as it's now called!). The photos are part of Oliver's efforts to promote the band on several fronts as they prepare to release their debut album. We were lucky enough to have access to Camera Obscura in Edinburgh for a few hours and had fun checking out all of the weird optical illusions, thanks to the folks there for allowing us access.
No photoshop involved: the first picture is taken in a room where one end slopes away and down a few feet to give a funny shrinking/gigantic effect. The second picture is taken on a walkway that has a revolving drum of lights around it kind of like being inside a washing machine, the first time you walk across that thing you feel sick! After a while you get used to it, but well worth a visit just for that.
both look cool
