Photo 5

For the final photo in this series I chose the most well rounded picture, it has good quality, lighting and decent composition. It is a good example of how low angle photography can bring out details of an area that a normal photograph would overlook while still capturing the image of the overall area well. For example the color and texture of the stone, or the height of the trees and the cars compared to everything else are just some of the details brought out by this style.

While this photo lacks in quality due to the nature of the camera used, it gains an almost artistic feel from the lack of focus in certain areas. The shadows take away a bit from the details in the foreground, but the overall perspective draws in the eyes of the viewer to the center and left sidewalk and while a more normal photograph of this area would be drawn to the street and the buildings, this photo shows more of the sidewalk area.

While this photo is not of the greatest quality due to my finger slipping and obscuring the photo slightly, it is still a good photo. It shows the details of the foreground while it still shows a decent amount of the surrounding area. While the details in the foreground are interesting, they do not make the photo, what does is seeing everything else that would normally be seen  in a different perspective.

While this photo is also among the first that was taken in the series there are several notable differences between this photo and the previous one. Unlike the first photo this one does not focus so much on what is in the foreground so much as it focuses on how different the buildings and other things look from such a low vantage point, the door to the right gives a point of reference to give the viewer an idea of just how low the photo was taken from.

Project 2 Photo #1

Low angle photography is the theme for this series

This photo was among one of the first taken in the series, and while it was taken while I was still exploring the concept of low angle photography. I think it came out very well, it demonstrates the particulars of the style well, showing in good detail objects in the foreground that would have been left out by a more standard photo.

Shape

For shape I used the handle as an example to show that interesting images can come form even simple components of an object. Demonstrating the idea that shape is important for an image even when it may seem to be unimportant or normal.

Texture

I felt that these images would be good examples of how texture can be represented in an image. This is because while the images show roughly the same areas certain textures are only really note able in specific images.
