Assignment #2

Caught

I wanted to create an image that had a bright central focus with darker edges. I was happy with the expression on his face. I think it played nicely into creating a feeling of calmness, as if he had been caught for a crime he had committed. 

February

This photo was taken during the first snow day Michigan State University has had in over thirty years. I wanted the subject to be dressed for the occasion. The bare trees in the background made a nice background for the asymmetrical layout of this photo. I made the focal point in the far right hand corner of the photo to create this layout.

       

Face Off

In this photo I wanted to have equal focus throughout the frame while keeping the primary focus on the subject. The intense gaze catches your attention but there was no blur in the frame. The photo was broken evenly with the person the rails and the doorway.


Winter Color

I added a splash of color to this otherwise black and white photo. The small dashes of red in the left corner to the full color house in the right corner add interest to the photo. I kept the person in this photo blurry and almost unnoticed. I like that he faded into the background.

Written Statement Part 2:
If I were to redo this project I would make my images more diverse. Two of my images had very similar facial expressions which I didn't really realize till I had the prints out in front of me.

Also,

I may have added a piece of color to all the images to create a better sense of unity.
