Day 20 Pictures

Okay, so I was out shooting for: Lines, Shapes, Textures, Patterns, and Negative Space. This road leading into distance has some good texture in the middle ground. I had to lay on my stomach for this one. This one also has some lines in that are pulling you forward to the destination.

So I'm not sure what this falls under, but I really like this photo. I edited this one and the previous one. Actually, all the photos today are edited in some way, minus the last one. I may go onto my professors computer and clone stamp that little plant out of the way, but I like the circular shape, but I also like the line that is pulling your eye all the way to the end of the tube.

The other part of our assignment was signage: license plates, signs, graffiti, advertisements, etc. This clearly is a license plate. I snapped this one because I liked that it was close to being something. It was close to being the word "Yes" and it was also close to being the numbers "3333." Each of these is just one letter, or one number, off.

Here is another sign. I cropped off the pole some since it wasn't really needed. I brought out some of the texture in the sign and saturated the colors a little bit.

I have a mild obsession with locks and stuff. This was just a great chance to snap a picture. I like how the wood of the door behind the lock still looks new and fresh, but you have the lock attached to it with rusty hooks and whatnot.

This picture is for the texture of the rust. I personally like the photo when it is bigger. You can really see into the little parts of all the rust. I also like the little cobweb strand that is hanging down right in the middle.

Here is my attempt at some negative space. Personally, when I zoomed in my eye was bouncing back and forth between the actually pattern of the bricks, and then also the pattern where the bricks are not. I may crop this some more later.

Here is some more texture. This comes from a palm tree. When new parts of the tree branch out it gets all hairy and whatnot, so you get all these strands coming from the tree. I also like how it looks like there is this strand sticking out of the tree and the rest of the tree is trying to reclaim this straying branch.

This was on a car. I personally just loved that is said "Picasso." I cropped it so I only got the word "Picasso" in the photo and nothing else. This will also be in my signage photos.

Here is some patterns. I cropped the photo to appear as if this pattern kept on continuing forever and ever. I also bumped up the texture of the pillars. Originally they just looked a little too washed out, but when I toned everything down their textures emerged.

Here is a pink flower that I took a picture of. I have been leaning away from flowers for some time, but I decided to take some more shots of some flowers. This is the one photo that I have not edited. I probably will go back and make some of the colors pop more.
