What is the distinct mood of the photograph? Explain. For Refraction, the mood is mysterious and interesting. The photo feels deep and makes you feel like you don’t understand what is actually happening in the photo but it just looks good as is.
What does the photo make you think about? Explain. Refraction makes me think about the mystery and discoveries of space. It gives us an image of one of the most unknown things in the universe in a photo through a reflection. It makes me think about what exactly is happening in this photo.
What in the photo jumps out at you? Explain. For Refraction. What jumps out at me is the extremely colorful middle of the photo. The reflection through the apple really makes the photo look mysterious and extremely colorful.
How does the photo make you feel? Explain For refraction. It makes me feel interested in the other mysteries in space and also other beautiful things that have yet to be discovered in space.
What advice would you give to next year’s students for shooting abstract photography? Explain. Some advice I would give is be creatative in the type of photo you choose for refraction. If you choose a photo that already looks good then the reflection will amplify the photo by a significant amount.
I think the lighting looks great. It being dark really sets a contrast between the shadows and the light. I think the purple looks cool as well.One thing that could be better is the cropping. I feel that the black part of the image on the right goes on too far, and you could have cut off some parts of it. A piece of advice I would give you is to keep the photos dark. All your dark photos look good with the rest of the abstract, and you should keep it up.
