Aftermath - Assignment 2

Ok for the second assignments breakdown I'll take it step by step.

1. Commodification of Faith
Feed back was given that the composition was nice, and the overall look was there, but the thing is the picture was lacking in terms of colour depth. It was too silver and white, so I guess to the rest it looked washed out.

Honestly speaking though, perhaps I was trying too hard to go into the whole zen thing. Although I do like these kind of photos, and the fact that this one was deliberately kept with "cold colours" it seems that a spot of some warmness would help attract people to look at it.

Overall Grade: B+, 76/100

2. Gold Coins
Same feedback was given, composition and all were fine, just lacking in colour. This one was basically as this and the first photo were shot in the same style. Except that this one didn't have a deep meaning behind it. So I would rate this photo worse than the first. Although once again I did like the singular isolation look...maybe if I tried to improve the table contrast...

Overall Grade: B, 70/100

As for classmates, I liked Mei Mei's Alfa Romeo shot, very classy indeed. Somehow stands out in comparison to its surroundings, also the angle of the shot was very nice too.

My grade: 87/100

I liked GuanMings shot with the arches, very nice looking with the light rays pouring through, a sense of isolation yet warmth.

My grade: 80/100
