إِرْهـاقْ (Burnout)
Typically, when it comes to "burnout," we come to think about the humdrum of life and the duties and the obligations that we are shackled to. Yet, there exists another type of burnout; The burnout from people. In such burnouts, you try your best to be the best version of yourself - you try to help, you try to advise, you try to teach, to love, to… to… to…, just to find yourself standing there alone among people who understand nothing about what you are doing, or how you feel - all they know is how to judge you and that you must comply to their ideas. Prolonged exposure to such environment is definitely to leave one exhausted, and burned out, and numb at some point; as if they don't exist, but they live.
Technicality: One quick simple shot that I thought of, and this time I shot it using my modified camera, and 50mm lens, fitted with B+W 092 infrared filter. I was actually hoping to get more colors since the threshold of this filter is low (~650nm) which means it should allow some color in, but that didn't happen exactly as I've envisioned it. Since the light is coming solely from the burning match, I didn't use any speedlites here, and I think it is just about enough for the dramatic effect in the circle of darkness around the set. One side of me think this is too simple and should have more to it, and one side says it is minimal and perfect the way it is; I'll leave it for others to judge. Worth noting that last year (I think?) I made a shot (long exposure one) of a burning candle with the same title, and using a chessboard as a prop. However, I didn't quite like that shot much for some reason.

« Des astrophysiciens ont découvert avec le télescope Webb que le trou noir supermassif central de notre galaxie, Sgr A*, émettait constamment des éruptions visibles en infra-rouge, sans période de repos, via le disque d’accrétion qui l’entoure. »
