Critique

The first critique of my first photo was mainly that it was more likely to be a diffuse photo if the light shining in the photo was not there. Another critique of the photo was if that photo of the picture seemed to blend together. The last main critique was that the viewers were not so sure if the photo was black and white or if the photo was taken of a black and white photo on the white wall. I was appreciative of these critiques because it told me a lot of what I need to improve. It gave me ideas from their critiques and how taking a photo is a little difficult since its just flat up against a wall with no depth. These critiques were very helpful to me to make sure my photo will be quite precise.

However, hearing the other critiques for the other photos and seeing the others work really gave me a better insight of how to enhance my performance in my photos. I was shown that angle is the most worthy technique you can possibly use in enhancing your photos. The angles in which photos are taken in really set the mood of the photo. It helps you get the sense of things. It will sometimes make you feel big, small, powerful, at ease, etc. The other critique that seemed very powerful to me was that the lighting in the photos is crucial in the photos. If the photo has too much lighting the photo may seem overly bright. The last thing I heard was that the subject should be somewhat appealing. If the subject seems boring or not too interesting, than it may be boring to others. But, if you have a photo of an interesting subject than you will most likely catch the viewer's eye. Overall the critiques for this assignment helped very much in gathering more interesting and, hopefully, better photos.
