Shape Assignment

This is a photo of leaves in a clear puddle. The shapes in this photo are organic shapes. The photo portrays asymmetry, which gives it an off- centered look. I like the colors in this photo and how they tie together in different shades of brown and yellow. I also like the different textures of the leaves and how the water gives it a nice reflection and ripple affect. I also like how some of the leaves are blurry while the main subject, the leaf with the seed is clear and focused.

This is a bugs eyed view picture of a tree in Tanner Springs Park. This image is an example of organic shape. The photo portrays radial balance. I like this photo because of the contrast between the white background and the black branches. The different sizes of branches gives the photo more interest and appeal to the eye.

Diptychs and Triptychs

These are two photos of spider webs in my yard. I like how they look together, they seem to correlate. I like how it is in black and white, it gives the diptych more eerie.  I like the light berries in the upper photo, it gives more tint to the black and white. The water droplets in the lower photo give more interest to the image.

These are two photos of my piano. I like the shadow that the black keys give, to make a triangular shape that is added to composition. I also like how the keys on the left photo are aged, they make the diptych more interesting. Another factor that gave the image more appeal is that the keys are flipped so there is a balance in black space and white space.

These are two photos of the same lamp in downtown Portland.

This is a collection of a light in Tanner Springs park. I like this image first because of how interesting the light is, I have never seen one like it. I also like this image because of the different perspectives of the same light. The left photo shows how big it is, the middle photo shows the different circles with the yellow light, and the right photo shows a different angle of the circles. When I first saw the light, I thought it looked pretty ugly and out of place. However, with these different angles, it makes for an interesting image.

This is a collection of "Bensen bubblers"water fountains in downtown Portland. I like how all the different photos are distinct angles of the same subject. It gives more diversity to the triptych. This is my favorite image in this bunch. I like the color scheme and how all of the pictures connect to the next.
