BIG Chair
PCA - Specific Element: Chair
Image Tag: pca320
Assignment:
This two-week assignment challenges you to incorporate an every day item into your photograph -- a chair. You may use the chair as the main subject or as a supporting element in the composition. It can be empty or occupied, new, old, damaged, underwater, used in an unusual way, etc. There can be one chair or many. You may show only part of a chair if you wish, but it must be identifiable as a chair and a meaningful part of the composition.
The only real constraint is that a chair must be an important part of the image.
WIT: I didn't think that I would be able to partciipate in this assignment due to time constraints. However, a special chair was found and I hereby submit!
We were driving and all these huge chairs were suspended on tall poles. I remembered this assignment and began looking for lower ones. As they are an advertisement for lake cottages, I was happy to find that there were several along our drive. Some of them were unacessible, but we found this one, did a U-y and piled the kids on it. I was hoping that they could all sit, but it was wet and dirty so they didn't.
In post, I removed some power lines - they were everywhere!!! and I couldn't compose without having at least some in the shot. (I tried!) and then a slight crop for composition, levels and ACR diminishing the highlights.
