Photo of the Week 4/21-4/25


Reflection
In this photo what I had in mind was to take a photo that mainly has an interesting atmosphere and setting. In a common neighborhood, just as the sun is going down the sky turns into a blend of warm, inviting colors, like the soft blue, lightly tainted orange and the barely visible yellow. It has clear cut shapes though what I want others to feel and understand is it's calming atmosphere.

Photo of the Week 4/14-4/18

Reflection:
This is a photo taken in front of our school, though what makes it more interesting is the point of view it seems to make someone feel a lot smaller in this perspective. Like what we did in another term of objective in our class. In more detail I like how the bright sky makes the objects in the picture seem like shadows with their outlines cast deeply and etched with barely any color. The clouds seem to blur the sky in a foam of white that makes another small uneasily seen detail. The atmosphere appears calm and as if the sky is very welcoming.

Photo of the Week: 4/7-4/11

Reflection
In this photograph I have taken a photo on the subject of pattern/leading lines. Notice the brick floor is constructed on the same shape and pattern as background to give it a solid, simple affect. It's background color unlike the expected vibrant, dark, outburst of a red color. The background made of bricks has a shade that is a lot lighter and begins to have a hint of red, although seems very gray and gives it a neutral type color that goes well with the focus in the picture. 
Extra Reading
The focus here is my pet rabbit, who has an incredibly sweet-nature, and is so lovable so I decided for my rabbit to be this photo's focus. By the way, this bunny is named Bunny, we weren't sure what to name it and decided to later, though we eventually stuck with calling it that and it felt awkward not to call it Bunny because it didn't feel and sound right to. You must be wondering what my rabbit is sitting next to, and what it is doing? Well it's next to my pet dog's bowl of food, it likes to climb in their sometimes and...eat my dog's food, yes this rabbit has acquired a taste for dog food. It's given vegetables and it's own food, though turns and hops towards my dog's food. It's his favorite thing to snack on. My dog doesn't mind he happily eats with Bunny and they eat together enjoying their meal, it's incredibly cute.
