critique me


I was contacted via e-mail by napoelon dynamite, on how he loved the style of my car. He said the curveture and overall look was as he said "fricken sweet". Upon the e-mailing back and forth, he flew out to plainfield so that i could photograph him with my car. He liked the trunk space, and said that his bow-staff would fit perfectly in it. I'm pretty happy with the outcome of t he photo, contrast and background. Let me know what you guys think!

last week of school

this is the last monday of school before 2010 roll's around. i'm still working on getting my s-curve project turned in, but it'll be worth it. Besides that, we're starting a new project and taking notes for it today (how fun). Everyone is excited for this week to be over with so that they can go on vacation and whatnot. I'm sure almost no work will get done this week by anyone either. that's it for now,

until next time,
tyler

critique me.


I like this photo because it has good black and white values to it. The composition is pretty clear and i like the contrast as well. i also like the fact that i dont really know what it is; kinda mysterious. Let me know what you think

S-Curves

i think for me, the reason why S-curves are so interesting is because they really lead the eyes. they take the viewer from one side of the photo, to the other. In the end, this makes them look over the whole photo without even knowing it because their eyes were just being lead across the whole thing. At the same time i think this is sometimes hard to do as a photographer. The reason why S-curves are more appropriate in females is because they have alot more curveture as opposed to guys. Females curveture and S-curves symbalize beauty, strength and feminism. there is definitely something inherent in females only that present the beauty factor, which makes them superior (as opposed to males) for S-curve photos.

mondays, mondays, mondays.

Today is monday, unfortunately. This means that we're all still working on our S-curves project. This sounds like a really fun project, if we were able to do it in class with some actual studio lighting and whatnot. i really like the concept of what we're supposed to do, but lack the drive of doing it because of not having the right materials.(backdrop, lighting etc.) I think regardless though, this project should turn out pretty decent for everyone.

Painting will always stay strong.

Painting is the one art form that i dont think will ever change. It's going to go on to still be a strong, if not the strongest kind of art. It takes lots of talent and years of skill to be good at painting. Photography is in a whole nother category when it comes to art. painting is a chance to create the world how you want to see it; fantasize, if you will. Photography is a chance to capture the world just the way it is, changing nothing.
