For this photo I did a close crop of my face with just a little peek of my shoulder showing. The photo was inspired by the concept of contrast, specifically by the work of (specific photographer here). Her use of contrast seemed subtle, yet still brought out specific details that were most important in the photo. I tested various angles of taking the photo of myself while sitting in the tree, and after about every 5-10 shots I would check and see what looked interesting. I am always looking for a way to create interesting self portraits, and I believe that this was a success.
This photo depicts bottle caps that have been tied and attached to a bike basket. I just came across this as I was coming to class and snapped a few shots. I feel that this goes well with the simplicity that I intended. It just documents something of everyday life, something that someone did to make their bike more interesting. The composition will lead your eye directly to the bottle cap in the middle of the left side, and lead your eye across the right side of the photo.
This is a portrait of my friend Breyer, inspired by the concept (concept). I had her stand out in the hall of the dorm that I live in and used a large aperture and a fairly quick shutter speed to capture her hair flip in the slightly dim lighting. I had her do this several times before we got this shot.
