Reflection Project

Reflection Project

For this project i went out with the mindset of just taking random reflection shots and in the end i would try to relate them back to a common theme. I find this easier and harded. On one hand i can take picturess of whatever i want but on the other hand finding a theme is very difficult. A theme that i took from each of these pictures is showing both the photo and how the photographer looks when he takes the picture. In a way thiers always two sides to a picture.

For this Depth of Field project my goal was to try and capture the wonderful elegance and complexity of the technology we use everyday. I accomplished this by using the Macro and the Super Macro features on my camera. They allowed me to get right up close and personal with my subjects. These features also allowed me to get and amazing amount of detail. All of the the items photographed were items i use everyday.

1.) I am attracted to this photograph because the woman in the yellow shirt stands out against the dull gray background. I also like the contrast between the hectic background and it is in a way calmer in the foreground.

2.) This is a strong photograph because it shows what it is actually like in Haiti right now. The photographer also choose a very powerful angle for this picture.

3.) The focal point of the photo is the woman in the yellow shirt.

4.) This photo tells the story of the earthquake in haiti because it is complete  chaos and everyone is confused and disorderly.

5.) The woman in the yellow shirt looks like she is looking for someone or she is lost.  She is walking on what use to be a house. She sees destruction everywhere she looks. 

For the first quarter i want to do the urban decay project, perspective project, texture contrast, and the reflection project.  I want to do the urban decay project because its winter and i think the cold depressing atmosphere will go good with urban decay idea. I want to do the perspective project and texture contrast because I'm interested in learning about those first. I want to do the reflection project because it sounds like something interesting that i want to do.
