Depth 1

 For the picture above and the four below, I tried representing depth by photographing scenes where the objects appear to be distance, and appear to be smaller than the main/bigger object.



 For the picture above, I tried capturing depth, by photographing the from the bottom of the pole and trying to capture the length and the top of the pole. In this picture, the pole appears to be getting smaller as the pole gets higher, trying to create an illusion of depth.
 For the picture above, I tried capturing depth and repetition. The horizontal gray lines are repeating, but fading away as the picture stretches. I tried creating the illusion of depth, by making it seem as the picture was getting tinier the farther it went.
 For the picture above, I tried incorporating repetition and depth. The chain has a repeating pattern of links and I tried representing depth by trying to create the same illusion as the one when I photographed the pole. The chain seems to be getting smaller as it stretches farther.
 For the picture above, I tried capturing depth by creating the illusion that it was getting smaller and smaller.
 I tried capturing depth in the picture above, by creating the illusion that the see-saw was getting thinner and thinner as it stretched.
 I tried capturing depth in the picture above, by photographing the tree as if it were getting thinner and thinner.
 For the image above, I tried creating a depth perspective by photographing the beginning of the stem as very obvious and then, as the picture goes on, it kind of disappears in a sense, on to the other leaves.
 For the image above, I tried incorporating repetition and depth. The swings are repeating and they sort of fade away, capturing a perspective of depth.
 For the picture above, I tried capturing both repetition and depth. The holes are repeating, creating a leading line and it leads to the door that seems to be far away.
For the picture above, the stairs are repeating, creating a sense of repetition and the house door seems to be far away, creating a feeling of depth.

Composition 1

For this assignment, we played around with all sorts of composition.

For the picture above, I tried focusing on the Rule of Thirds, trying to capture an interesting perspective to the picture. The motorcycle is in on the left side of the grid.

 For the picture of the door and the plants, I tried also, rule of thirds and trying to organize the picture.
 For the picture above, I tried capturing a diagonal perspective, and also a rule of thirds perspective.
 For the picture of the door and the lamp, I also did rule of thirds composition.
 For the picture of the number one, I tried organizing the picture so that the number one could capture the attention. It is also in rule of thirds.
 For the picture of the plants, I tried to capture the plants by taking a picture of them in a diagonal line.
 For this picture, I tried diagonal composition.
 For the picture of the boxes, I tried the triangular composition. The boxes form a sort of triangle.
 For the dark picture, I tried rule of thirds.
 I also tried rule of thirds for the picture above.
 For the picture above, I tried organizing it in a rule of thirds composition, and i wanted the main focus to be the house and the staircase.
 For the picture above, I wanted all of the attention to go to the motorcycle, and I tried taking it in a rule of thirds composition.
 For the picture about the cone, I tried capturing it in a diagonal fashion.
 I tried capturing the rule of thirds for the picture above.
 I also tried rule of thirds for the picture above.

Spring/Combo Series 2

For this assignment, I decided to try out a new style of photography than the one I was doing before. Before, I was doing a series of repetition, but I decided to try out conversational portraits. For this series, I tried to capture as much color and brightness in the picture as possible. While I was having an ordinary conversation with a friend, I took pictures to capture all of their facial expressions, hence the name conversational portraits. I also decided to add a Polaroid frame to the picture, in order to create a more finished look.

Repetition Project

For this assignment, I chose to experiment with repetition. I tried to create an in-depth staging effect with the repetition. All of my pictures are in black and white and with high exposure.
