Hey Katie! I really liked a bunch of your photos for this topic. 17, 12 and 10 were my favorites. 17 picked up a lot of interesting shaped shadows from what was out the window and I like that you frame it in the center (a frame within a frame). 12 I thought was clever. It left me wanting to know the story behind the hula dancer creeping in the doorway haha. And 10, I loved the contrast of the crisp white linen and just the corner of your eye revealed in the bottom left of the frame. I think you created a lot of stories within these, good work! POW, 10.
Hi Katie, Love your photos. While scrolling through your photos I felt I was going through a part of your life. I also like the lighting and the color contrast used for this assignment. I think your POW should be #13 because of the color contrast, and I think it's very artsy and classy at the same time. .good job!
Hi Katie. Your self-portraits are absolutely stunning. You have a real understanding of how to capture emotion and create mystery. I really like how in many of them you have created obscurity by either hiding part of your face or using reflection. These are all very beautiful and tender but, I think my favorite and my choice for your POW is photo 1. There is something very sexy, playful, seductive, thoughtful and sad all at the same time captured in your eyes. I think a photo is pretty damn good when it can convey all of those things at the same time. Additionally, the contrast between your skin and the white sheets is a very nice venture into color.
Hey Katie, you had awesome self portraits this week. In your self portraits, I particularly like how you included the environment in the photos. Even though some of the environments were very similar, you captured yourself at different angles so it made the photos turn out completely different. With that being said, your POW is 1. For me, this photo has the most mysteriously environment and I love the contrastive colors.
pow 12 hands down, really cool and creative photo, playing with the darkness within the door and the figure peaking out. the green wall adds a nice flat base to the photo, but all of the focus in on the hoola girl peeking out, too funny
lots of outdoors and sky/trees here. i think the more successful ones are the ones with the sun set because it adds more color to the composition and blue and orange are always good complimentary to work off of.
Hey Katie, I see a cool theme taking place in your collection: mystery of self portraits. I like how you take the "selfie" to the next level by adopting unique angles and depth. Your self portrait one is definitely the best out of the self portrait collection because despite all the whiteness, the color of your face adds just the right amount of color to the picture. It leaves the viewer wondering who you are and what you're trying to say. POW is 12. The differences of the color work well in the picture and even though they are varying color, they do very well in bringing balance and composure to the photo. Also, the angles were used very well in this picture and putting the figure off center a bit resonates very well. Also, great use of thirds in this picture. Definitely has to be one of the most creative and my favorite in your collection.
Hi Katie, you had alot of great portrait shots. Out of all your photos I enjoyed 11, 16, and 17 the best. #17 was the best photo at creating a sense of mystery. The strong silloutte of the trees coming through the shade and the close crop of just the window frame create a great picture. I would select #11 as your POW though because it is the most interesting photo to me. There is definitely a sense of emotion created by placing the statue within the closet with the doorframe slightly ajar. The darkness behind teh staue against the bright exterior creates great contrast as well as the vibrant colors agains the darkness. You can't help but look at the photograph and wonder what is going on.
I like that a lot of your photos have trees in them, it's a theme! Your photos are definitely mysterious and you have a lot of cool things going on with the structure and the colors. Your POW is 17 because of the contrast of the colors and the way the shadows look. It's an awesome photo!
Hey Katie! I really enjoyed browsing through all of your photographs. All of your photos create such a great sense of serenity and calmness. I love how you shot your portraits in a way where you can only see a part of your face. This definitely creates a really great sense of mystery. I think that your POW for this topic is 10. Your eye in the corner really pops out and creates a great focal point. I love how the dark black eye liner contrasts the white sheet covering your face.
Hi Katie! Really enjoyed looking at all of your pictures. I really loved the very first picture on the blog. Number 17 should definitely be your POW. I love that you used the shadows from outside as your splash of color and the blue hue to the picture really makes the picture stand out from the rest. It's something that I haven't seen from anyone else's pictures. Great job!
Katie! You never fail to impress. I love just about every photo. You played a lot with shadows, landscapes, and lighting. They were all meticulous and well composed. I really like the mysterious self portraits you have going. My favorite photo, and choice for your POW is #10. The lighting is perfect, and the contrast and detail are also balanced just right. It makes me wonder what your actual emotion under the sheet is. Are you happy, sad, mad, nervous, etc. Great job Katie!
Hi Katie! First off, I really love photos #13, #8, and #5. Thirteen is great because it's the little pops of color and the framing that make a very simple photo incredibly beautiful.
#5 is really cool because I feel that if you took any small part of that picture and made it into a smaller picture, that it would still be a cool picture. All of the angles, lines, and patterns create a mysterious feel as to what is behind the glass since it's such a distorted picture of the outside.
I think your POW is #8. I love the simplicity of the picture and that the only color is the wood. The patterns between the wall, the wood, and the cement create a very visually pleasing and simple picture yet it's still so attractive. You made great use of the camera lens and framing the picture.
