This photo was a failed attempt to capture a really cool shadow that a flagpole was making on campus. I liked how the shadow stood out from the dull bricks and cement, but I don't think I was quite able to capture how cool it looked in person.
This was my first attempt to take a photo that exemplifies rhythm this week. It was pretty dark when I took it, so I had to turn up the brightness on my phone just to see what was there, and I feel this hurt the quality of the photo, but I like how the motorcycle interrupts the rhythm of the painted lines.
This photo doesn't really exemplify rhythm, but I love the stark tonal contrast that the shadow creates against the street. This photo was very spontaneous. I was talking to a member from my old ward in Vegas about using her house for one of my projects, and I happened to have my phone out and notice her cool shadow and the tree.

This is the ceiling of the Marriott Center. I like how it looks like a computer chip or something. Not a whole lot of color, but I like the tonal (a lot of tonal contrast this week)

This is a close up of a car light. I was trying to capture the rhythm of all of the circles in the car light together. The bad focus kind of ruins the picture, but I still really like the color and the shape of the circles (and the rectangular-ish box that they're in).
All of your photos have a grainy quality to them this week which is kinda fun. The flag pole has a creepy quality to it. Everytime I look at it I think the lines on the right are a daddy long leg. Also interesting framing on the motorcycle picture. I probably won't have though to cut off the top of the bike but I like that you did.
ReplyDeleteI don't know Steven, that first picture is super intriguing. I am glad that the object is not obvious from the shape. Personally, I thought it was the shadow of a very pointed high heel shoe.
ReplyDeleteAin't you glad I am not in your group. I just ramble on about random things.
I like the last picture a lot. I like the red and circles. I feel like I can hear sirens on a cop car or something. I like the angle on it as well.
ReplyDeleteYou had a cool emphasis on shadow for this week. It led me to think that even immaterial things can provide rhythm. Really cool stuff, man.
