I have to say that this final project has motivated me to try something new with my selfies. I was glad to pick the reflected selfie because of the services, whether curved, vibrant, or multiple reflections of me in one picture. I used my mother's vehicle as a reflection, and I loved how the red tone reflected on the selfie, including the trees in the background. My favorite portrait would have to be me holding the crystal ball and catching my reflection upside down. The multiple reflections were a unique idea because they made me think of the hall of mirrors at the Carnival. I took the other photo at the bookstore, and they have Plexiglas, where you can see my reflection. I used a pizza cutter as a reflection, and I liked how the selfie turned out with the shape of the pizza cutter. Overall this was a fun and unique selfie experience. There are many ways to make a great selfie.
I like the fact that you were able to find good examples of rhythm in photography at a place as simple as a store. Something as simple as pens is able to convey an interesting pattern and sense of continuity, as if the line of pens goes on forever because of the way you composed the image. The focus of your images is very clear, however there isn't a whole lot of context to tell what's going outside of the surface of the subject, which seems unavoidable with closeup images, but it appears like it's part of your own style, and the feel of the images is something only you can capture.
ReplyDeletealso I didn't see we had assigned people to comment on so I guess you get a bonus one lol
DeleteHello Reggie,
ReplyDeleteYour images show just how easy it is to spot rhythm being used in everyday places. My favorite image would have to be the first one, the balloons show rhythm well and you can predict the next sequence. Overall though I noticed more progressive rhythm in majority of your pictures.
