three shots of the week

April 10, 2008

Picture of moon
For this shot and most of the shots of the weeks to come im focusing on lines and how they can lead people to where i want them to look. The first shot im focusing on the moon and its many interior lines. The gentle curve that the moon has in the top right corner of my shot gives it a feeling of gentleness. the rigid lines and fast moving life around the moon gives it the feeling of reality and even though life still moves fast around us, theres still beauty in the simple things. Colors are very contrasting with the dark blue night sky and the beautiful white moon illuminating the sky for the evening. The focus was not obviously on color but more on the lines in the shot. Overall im very pleased with the shot and how big my subject was in comparision to the overall framing. This was a lucky catch for the moon being so big too and i just so happened to have all my camera stuff on me. Im very pleased with the outcome.

This shot was a focus on more of how i could use liones in the background to draw attention to my subject. Now as you see i put my subject in the corner where most people start reading a picture so automatically you begin with the image of the girl. then as you travel down the fram you notice her eyes and how well they pop out of the background and how her face and hand are the attraction of the shot. The gentle curve and the end of her nose doesnt send you off into the rest of the shot but more down the rest of her untill you reach the bottom where the hand draws you back up to her face again. The blue background was a great way to make her pop right out of the background without the proper lighting due to none of the colors match and she just flows with the shot. Overall im very very pleased with this shot. The main purpose was to actually show my girlfriend this beautiful little girl that i work with at my church and i was overwhelmed with how the shot turned out. The lighting was just superb and the exposure time needed just a little adjustment and a little bit brightening but overall i was very happy with this shot.
