This photo was taken of a piece of corn at the Ice Cream Barn for the Pattern and Texture assignment. The picture has great lighting, which allows the corn's kernels to be enhanced as well as its hairs. I took this photo by placing my phone a couple of inches from the corn and focusing it in the perfect way so that the color was enhanced to the max. The skin of the corn frames the kernels so that you are looking at the spot on the picture that had the most exposure to light. The kernels form simple shapes while the skin forms a nice negative space in the bottom left corner, forming a triangle. Looking at this picture, it reminds me of fall and gives me a warm happy feeling.
This photo was taken of a kitchen object that was being shined on by a spot light. By using the spot light, I was able to form an interesting shadow, which is why I used it for Shadow. The shadow form interesting leading lines that lead your eyes off the photo. The white table against the shadow and kitchen object form nice negative space, allowing the viewer to focus their attention on to the shadow. This also allows the viewer to feel a large depth of field seeing distance between the black background and the kitchen object. The blurred ends of the shadow allow for a mysterious, edgy feel to this photo.
This photo was taken of the pumpkin in my front yard's window sill. This photo was used for the Patten and Texture assignment. The way the lighting hits the hay and pumpkin enhances the textures so clearly. While taking this picture, I made sure I was close enough where I could still be in sharp focus. The frame of the box allows leading lines to lead the viewers eyes to the back of the photo. The foreground of this photo was highlighted to show the depth following behind it. This gives the viewer a sense of warmness and or edgyness seeing the contrast between the hay and pumpkin.
The photo above was taken in the court yard of a leaf on a tree. The negative space in the background allows the leaf to become the center of attention. The way the light is hitting the leaf, mixed with the amount of focus, allows the leaf's texture to pop. The foreground of the picture is highlighted. I came really close to the leaf to capture the texture for my texture assignment. It allows the viewer to feel a happy summer feel whenever they see the sun hit the leaves.
This photo of the chairs was taken in the back of the old aud. The way the chairs are stacked up allows almost a pattern that was cut short. The door allows the viewer to focus on just the chairs without being distracted. I used the window to my advantage to really make sure the color of the chairs was highlighted. The contrast of the black door allows the colors of the chairs to pop. I also made sure that i focused really well on to the texture and buttons of the chair to show the distress these chairs have endured. It allows the viewer to feel a sense of relief almost, seeing the pop of color against a black door frame.
This photo was taken of a bridge as I was on my boat in the summer. The bridge itself is a leading line, leading your eye across the sky. The cables of the bridge from triangles in the sky. I used a really low point of view to make sure I was able to capture the largeness of the bridge compared to my boat and I. I was fortunate to have the sun right before sunset cast a reflection onto the water. By doing this. its allowing the water to enhance its ripples. I attempted to really focus on the bridge itself since its the main focal point of this photo, When viewers see this photo, they feel a sense of summer, happy and chill.
