Street Detail Draft #2

In this draft I continued the same ideas from my first draft. I focused more on pay close attention to different possible photogenic objects and trying out new things in my pictures. 

Street Detail Draft #1

In this new sereis, I decided to focus on finding smaller details on the streets around Drew. I found both objects are signs that aren't necessarily noticeable while walking down the street. I also kept the pictures in black and white because I think that it shows the emphasis on the object of the picture, and not the background. For the next draft I want to continue to find more objects that have small details in them.    

Beginning of Street Detail

In this new series project, I decided to focus on street photography, but with a focus on small, detailed things. I think that the small things on the street are just as important and should be noticed equally as the big picture. I also am editing all my photos in black and white, because I feel like that buts the focus more on the object then it's background or color. These two pictures are just a start to my series, and I plan to continue to find detail such as this.

Grids

            In this assignment my goal was to capture four images that flow as a whole. Some specific aspects that I focused on was abstract, large scale, patterns, and close up. Some grids I pieced together as a puzzle so that all four pieces fit in place with each other, and other grids i made sure that there was a common theme between all four images, and let that make the grid flow.  

SF MOMA Review

Exposed-
What I really enjoyed about this exhibit is that it was able to bring all different styles and types of photography together and make it one. Although each photographer was essentially attempting to capture the same idea, each image had its own uniqueness to it. I think that the photographers were trying to show both people at their best and people at their worst, and it was up for us as the audience to decide when each one is being portrayed. Just like our current multi-frame assignment where we were trying to create flow between one image and another, this exhibit does this as well. The flow that your eyes see from one image to the next is a spectacular way of viewing these images!

Henri- Cartier Bresson- 
I was completely blown away as I walked through what seemed like never ending rooms filled with the most eye-catching images. Each one was more powerful than the next. I enjoyed looking at where each image was taken and imaging what it would be like to be him, taking that photo in that place or time period. Also, you could really see how he progressed as a photographer and how his style changed ever so slightly as the images went on through time. I was also surprised to see that many of the images in the exhibit I had seem before, and never knew it was he who took them. Over all, Henri- Cartier Bresson is a very talented photographer with a very large archive of amazing and powerful photos.

Mutli-Frame

     In this set of photos, while taking them and editing them, I was looking for different objects, or different angles of the same object that would easily flow together as a series. While putting the final sets together I was able to look through my entire collection of images to see what would flow the best as a set of 3 or 2.
