Draft 5

Draft 5
My project is based on of Uta Barth's photos. I did this by fully zooming in and going fully out of focus. By doing this, I was able to create simple shapes with simple colors. I wanted to mix colors and geometric shapes in a way to create a neat abstract image. I added the PicMonkey Film Grain filter to each of my photos in order to make my photos more simplistic. My themes are very simplistic and calming, and they make the viewer really think about the photo and try to interpret what the subject of the photo is. After my first day of taking photos, I learned that street lights are very good subjects for my photos, as they emit an unusual and prominent color. My photos changed since my Draft 4 photos by trying to have more simple shapes that have conflicting colors. I continued to try to create shapes in my photos so that the focus is not too drawn out into the corner by some bright light. I also read Casey's comments which suggested me to take these photos at night time. These photos turned out to be really pretty, and they turned out to be pictures of big blobs of light in the dark.

  2. The night images are the best ones of your entire series. You should keep taking more to include in your book.

  5. These are so cool. I especially like the images that you took in the dark. I think the black background and the circles of color are really interesting. I think that because of the dark background, it allows the colors to stand out more which is awesome.

  7. great job working at night. Those images are really strong and i love the light. I think your images are cohesive because the filter is so prominent in your work. Im looking forward to flipping through your book!

  8. I like how despite some were much darker than others, you still found a way to make them integrate together through the contrasting colors you had within each photo

Class Project 1 I tried to recreate Lauren's fall series by taking black and white pictures of Lauren while she was using her arms to make shapes. I tried to recreate Daro's miniature world by making Daro seem short by having him sit under a table.  I tried to recreate Lakpa's photos by overlapping and fading her face with a scenic picture. I feel like this photo is really relaxing.  I tried to recreate Liam's photos by overlapping and fading his face with a scenic picture. I tried to recreate Armon's photos by taking a picture of him with abstract architecture behind him. I tried to recreate Stewart's photos by taking a picture of him sitting in an urban area. I also tried to make the picture look like Stewart wasn't aware of his photo being taken. I tried to recreate Danny's athlete series by taking a portrait of him. I tried to recreate Ava's ghost series by taking a picture of her, printing it out, a...

My photos changed since my Draft 3 photos by having the impact of the grain filter on my photos be less. I tried to create shapes in my photos so that the focus is not too drawn out into the corner by some bright light. I basically tried to create an even balance in all of my photos. ...
