Photo #1 Glasses

 

 

Objective 3: Elements and Principles of Design

 

The principles of design I used are emphasis, balance and contrast.

 

Emphasis: The emphasis in my photo is created by using the rule of third lines and having them line up in key spots on the glasses and I kept the background as clutter free and blurred as I could.

 

Unity: I also have unity in my photo because there is nothing in my photo distracting me from the glasses and I have kept the glasses tac sharp while keeping the background blurred.

 

Contrast: Finally my photo has contrast do to the fact that the background much darker than the foreground brings attention to the glasses.

 

The elements of design used in my photo are form, tone, and space.

 

Form: My photo has form because 1 half of the glasses are closer blur and the other half is farther away creating a felling of 3 dimension that adds more depth to the photo.

 

Tone: The photo also has tone created by the soft side lighting made from the change of colour from light gray to black causing depth and 3 dimensional feeling to be created.

 

Space: Lastly the photo has space because the black background outlines the lighter colours on the glasses giving the glasses a more positive and defined look.

 

Objective 4: Lighting

I used a soft back lighting to give the glasses a more defined and 3 dimensional look giving the photo a more dramatic look.

 

Objective 5: Post Production

In post-production I increased the clarity and sharpened the photo to make it look crisper. I also made the photo black and white to make it look more dramatic.

 

 

Objective 6: Critique

I like the angle that I took the photo at and the fact that I kept the background clutter free and blurred. I do wish I could get rid of the reflection on the lens of the glasses.
