Photograph #17


Title: Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia

Like the photo posted before this, I immediately noticed how the photographer choose to dedicate two-thirds of the photo to the sand (or whatever this is). I kind of wish that the picture would have a little more color, but then again, I kind of like that the colors in the picture are very simple and clean.

Storm Clouds

The reason why I chose this picture is because I noticed that the photographer devoted over two-thirds of the frame to the clouds. I think he really wanted to focus on the storm and how powerful the clouds look. It is kind of ironic to me because the ocean is SO pretty and the clouds just look terrifying!

I love the sky in the this photograph. It is cool that the cross is in front of the sky so it contrasts and adds a focus on it. I also like that the cross is off centered. 

Photograph #14

Walking on the Beach

This photo really caught my eye when I glanced at the photographers website. I love the contrast between the trees and the rest of the photo. I also noticed that the trees make a frame for the man walking on the beach. This picture stands out to me because of its sepia tone.

Photograph #13


Title: none

I'm not so sure why, but I love this photo. I think it gives a very deep emotion to the viewer based on the way the model holds herself. In my eyes, she seems to be searching and hoping for something. The backdrop of the photo adds texture.

I love the fact that all of the colors in the photo are similiar; Everything has a nude tint. The woman in the window really gives an emotional effect to the photo and makes you wonder what is going on in her head.

Although I don't LOVE this picture, I immediately noticed the contrast between the models dress and the cave she is standing in. This picture just reminds me of summer.
