Texture

(IOS 800, F3.5, desaturate )

This photo is about the texture of the branch, and also there are many lines, which is simple but also complicated. My idea is influenced by Aaron's photograph works; he likes to shoot simple things, but they always look interesting, so I tried to shoot the messy branches and make it in black and white, which shows a interesting looking, too:)

Shape

(IOS 800, F3.5, desaturate)

This photo is focused on the shape of the chocolate. Aaron's photos are interesting and catching viewer's eyes because he always shoot things in our daily lives. I shoot this photo just for fun, and when I desaturate it, I feel like it become warm and cute; not only the chocolate itself, but also the paper in the background, which I make it blurred.

Composition

Web & Drop

    This photo catches viewer's eyes by its color and its focus. The main thing in this photo composition is the thin spider web and that drop of water. I made the background is blurring because it can make the photo be really clear about what it wants to show to the viewers. The color is green, which is bright and fresh, and I think the green color really fit in the scene of this photo.

Crack

     I think this photo is really simple and also interesting that could catch viewers' eyes easily. The texture of the ground and the simple line is the most important parts in the picture. I also use blurring at the ends of the crack because I think it could make the photo more attractive and interesting. The lighting of this photo is kind of warm, which is also eye catching to the viewers.

Polar Opposite

Withered Tree VS. Flourished Tree

    This project's name is Polar Opposite, which is capturing two completely opposite subject. My idea was just bumped out when I walked home and saw that withered tree on the road. If there was withers tree, there must be flourished tree, so that became my final idea to this project. I took a picture on a withered tree and make it in black and white. I think black and white could show more about this tree, which is dying and withering. For the other tree, I tried to took a colorful photo; however, my final photo was not as bright as I wanted. I might have the wrong angle and lighting, so the second tree does not show that flourished. I did the flourished tree in color because I think it will make a comparison between these two photo and show my idea more clearly.
