Optical Illusions Project

Optical Illusion Photos 

Written Reflection:
1. What do you want your viewer to feel when looking at these photos?
I want my viewer to feel that these photos are realistic when looking at these photos.

2. What obstacles did you face when setting up the shoot?
The obstacles I faced when setting up the shoot was getting the right position for the objects in the photos. If the objects were not placed correctly then the pictures would look displaced.

3. Which photograph are you most proud of and why?
I am most proud of the second photograph because of how the tiger looks bigger than myself. The size variation makes the photo look real.

Normal View Photos 

Reflection: My favorite photograph was the normal view photo that was taken in Vegas. I feel this photo was effective because it provides great detail in the photo. The vantage point added to the effect because of the normal viewpoint of the photo. 

Composition Project

Composition Photos: 

I used four different types of composition in these photos which includes leading lines, symmetry/asymmetry, rule of thirds, and patterns/texture.

On this photo, it captures the rule of thirds.

This photo represents asymmetry.

This photo establishes rule of thirds.

In this photo, leading lines is being represented.

Symmetry is being symbolized in the photo.

Leading lines is represented in this photo.

The photo represents patterns/texture.

Texture is being represented in this photo.

Written Reflection:

1.  My top three photos is the picture of myself being represented with rule of thirds, the black and white photo of pattern and texture, and the photo of Disneyland using asymmetry.

2.  I feel that these photos are the best because of the lighting and angle that they were taken at. I feel that they are interesting because of the time of day that the photos were captured. It brings a unique contrast to the pictures. 

3. To successfully complete this project, I had to think of ways to take pictures in a professional matter. I took time to take these pictures so that nothing was distracting, blurry, too bright, and too dark so I could become a better photographer. 

Inspirational Photographer

David Evans is an amazing landscape photographer because of the way he edits his pictures. He is my inspirational photographer because of the way he captures the lighting. He turns a dull and boring picture into a breathtaking picture. David takes the pictures at a perfect angle and captures the subject  in a way that gives you chills.
