Photos - Week 7

1.

This photo has the least amount of color out of all of my photos this week, and it's mostly black, white and grey with a blue tint.  I liked the ambiguous space and the strange, modern art taking up the foreground.  I wish I could have had something more colorful in the background to draw the eye, but I do like all of the tonal contrast going on with the tree and the sky.

2,

I was looking at my roommate's workout equipment, and I realized that his blue mat was kind of a nice color, so I tried to position the dumbbell in such a way as to see the wall and the floor.  The space is pretty ambiguous and it's not framed very well, but I like the color contrast between the blue mat and the red wall and chair.

3.

This was probably my most conscious effort this week to play around with color.  I tried to position the red and the blue next to each other so that the color placement would make them appear to be more saturated.  I wish I had shot them in a more consistent environment, though, rather than on top of the dull brown drawer and strange curtains that distract, and I feel like some of the colors clash more than I wanted them to, but I do like that red/blue combination.

4.

More ambiguous space (although not as ambiguous as the previous shots).  I wish I could have gotten the background in focus, but I like how the holes on the iron lead towards the red wall in the background, 

5.

More red and blue.  I took several different shots of our google fiber box, and I tried to make the lighting in the background consistent.  I had a different shot where the red was darker and the lighting was better, but it ended up desaturating the blue light, so this ended up being the only photo where the blue light emanating from the box wasn't washed out or desaturated.

  1. It’s cool that there is kind of a theme of blue and red in your photo’s this week. Though the color isn’t as eye catching in the first photo the tones, lines and shapes you captured are nice. I am not the biggest fan of the building and light in the background but other then that I really like it.

  2. I love photo 3. I love how I feel the fun and vibrant colors through the image. It makes me excited to play the games. I like the flat space.

  3. The iron has a really bizarre sense of depth and I find myself really drawn towards the red on the wall in the back. It's a sweet photo. :)
