Back to the rather see-through hunter green cheesecloth. Let us call this pair circles and stripes.....
For the stripes, I used a brush to get the discharge solution along the edges and in the center. This material is so thin, I actually accomplished this easily by folding the material in half, three different times. This doesn’t work with all materials, and trial and error is the way I am learning. The crinkle guaze I have been working with doesn’t react as well. I can only fold that in half once for the discharge solution to flow to both sides of the material.
For the circles, I used a cookie cutter. I used a larger one on one of the lime green designs, but for this, I chose a smaller circle and was rather haphazard in the placement. You will most likely see this approach again.
I used some spot lighting to create a circle on the backdrop, and used it to get some shadow effects. I’m still trying to conceive of a shadow only shoot. Since the fundoshi needs to be the focus, this may be hard. If I figure out the balance, you will see it in the coming weeks.
Fundoshi....hunter green and quite soft
Fabric....cheesecloth
Photography....Once again, I am back to the white backdrop and it’s inherent flaws. This shoot was done at the same time as the last shoot, so there wasn’t much I could manipulate after seeing the photos.
And now...the rest of the photos....
Next time on fundoshi fabric and photos, the final lime green crinkle gauze design....
