complementary color

This assignment was not my favorite because i had a really hard time finding things to take pictures of, or set up colors that look okay together. I personally liked the monochromatic assignment because i found it easier to put the same colors together.

Although i didn't like this assignment the first time I shot. But the second time I really started to see how I could put objects together to make an interesting picture. I found that if I stuck with the same color instead of trying to find new colors to put together every time I came up with more ideas.

Once I started to take pictures of the green and pink a whole new set of ideas came into my mind. I started to see how if I had the light hitting just the right spot how my picture would light up rather than just being dark. And I personally like color so after I stopped trying to just do the assignment , I started to take pictures to make a picture.

It's a little repetitive but these are the colors that I liked and actually got something out of them so I kept with them. I really shoes and I like clothes with a good texture.

Irving Penn

So Irving Penn took these pictures. And these two are just some of my favorites that I found on the web.

To start off with is the picture of the ruffled dress. I really like how he captured the shadows from the ruffles. The net on the hat kind of makes her face looks mysterious:)


The second picture of the mouth is interesting because of how the lip stick is layered on. And its artistic because of the way it is spread on. Its not just put on just straight its spread onto her face.


The third picture is my favorite. I love the freckles on her face. And her eyes are really cool!
Her face looks like it tells a story. I personally like it because its dark. And i tend to like my pictures dark.

Monochromatic

So I think this project was one of my favorites. After I started taking pictures of monochromatic every where i went i started trying to put colors together to makes pictures. I thought this project was a lot of fun. My favorite pictures though are the pears, the crow, and the plums .

So here's the before and after of my number 79. I kind of like them both but it just depends if you like them darker or lighter. But I didn't do much to fix this picture.
