Draft 4

I felt that it was much harder to find images this week because I had already been around the Drew neighborhood the other weeks that it was difficult to find subjects that I hadn't used already. This week, I tried to use subjects that were more than just grafiti. This is included subjects that didn't contain any words in the image as well. I started to run out of ideas of what to take photos of, so I started taking pictures that seemed interesting to me, so some of the images that I posted might not seem completely out of their natural habitat. Some of the items that I wanted to take photos of were kind of out of my reach, so I tried to take the photo as well as I could, but some I feel like the angles are kind of off. However, I kind of like the feel of the strange angles because it allows the subject to stand out more.

  1. I love how each photo has a different type of graffiti or message. I thought this week was your strongest so far. keep up the good work!

  2. I think this is such a cool project and I really like how each photo is so different yet they all work together really nicely. Your post flowed really well and I enjoyed how each photo was in black and white. you did a great job!

  3. My favorite is the second to last one; I think it best captures the Lyon-esque atmosphere. I also like how there's a bit of a floating or hanging motif here, like the hanging block and ornaments. Well done.

  4. I really like the way the lights and darks are so contrasting because they add to the disjointed nature of your photos. You also took a lot of pictures of things that seem out of the ordinary like doorknobs with no door or a mattress on a tree rather than a bed-- these all add to the eery feeling Lyons tries to convey.

  6. I really like that these photos not only show the city but also the not as nice parts of the city, which conveys a strong message, my suggestion is to rotate your photos if they are not straight.

  7. I really like how your images tell story. I feel like behind each image is its own story. great work

  8. I would agree that your odd angles add to the eeriness of you photos. My favorite one is your 6th one because it's so out of the ordinary for something to seem floating, although it's not. Great work!

Best of Spring Series

Throughout this project, I wanted to focus on contrasting the difference between drawings and reality. I thought that keeping the drawings black and white made allowed the real photo stand out more which abled me to show the contrast a lot more. These images are the one's I thought were the best ones from this entire project.

Spring 2

This week I really focused on erasing all the extra space from the drawing images that I didn't need. This I think is one of my most time consuming series I have ever done. I kinda mixed in the idea of imagination and reality into this draft. For next time, I think I wanna try both of them for a whole entire week to really get a sense of black and white realistic drawings in colored real backgrounds versus black and white imaginative drawings in colored real backrounds

Fall Series Final #4

In my last draft, I really got into the candid photos of my people. I think they really brought the photo together. As before, I used the city image as the background but I only edited it after I combined it with the picture of the person. This way, it allowed me to see how much the background need to be brightened to make the picture of the person stand out more. In these photos I really wanted to make sure that it wasn't just the person being seen, but there was some notice of the background. However I wanted the main focus to be the models and I think that the bright colors that my model were wearing allowed them to stand out of the photo allowed most of the focus go to the model.
