Realism photo
Formalistic
ExpressionistI then moved on to a second theme, the literal idea of creeping in traffic, there were some really nice shots taken BUT they seemed to connote speed more than creep.
After presenting in class though, it seemed like some of my other shots were actually better than the ones I chose, one of which wasnt exactly the same subject, but I think this will serve as an impetus to shooting a new set of photos. Personally speaking, it was a slightly risky assignment this time because I literally was standing in the middle of the road taking photos and had to dodge cars to save myself. On the other hand I also needed to shoot from a much lower point of view this time, and lying down on the road was a definite no. In the end a little bit of trial and error helped me get the photos I wanted...
I was also advised to play a little more with the lighting I shall reshoot and experiment again. I think if possible too, I would like to actually try to flesh out the traffic creep idea...its just that its so ironic that when Im on the road at that particular time it ALWAYS jams and when I want to take photos it NEVER jams. Argh.
Im much more pleased with the final result this time too...
So a summary,
Effort 45/100
Final product: 40/100
Total: 85
I also thought that Jyllins snail photos were fantastic, I think that Jillyns snail photos were fantastic, the composition was nice (except for a minor boo boo) and the subject matter was interesting too beautiful to catch a snapshot of nature like that... 90/100
Mikes photos were wonderful too, I thought his Realism photo was a little surreal from where I was sitting though, but it looked surreal in a fantasy kind of way, very very nice, plus the little plant growing really had character to it! 90/100
