 * 1) These three pictures show a high ability to use the natural lighting they are given, giving us the mood of what the artists are portraying in these photos.


 * 1) The first picture is a landscape. The artist is David Uzochukwu. The mood of this photo is calm, and independent. This photo calls out to me, that people can be lonely, and are able to be lonely, and still be able to enjoy what life gives you without anyone else. To me this a very powerful message, that you don’t need someone to make you happy, as long as you can enjoy life itself, and be happy about it. Sure this could be portrayed the total opposite. As in this person is lonely, and needs someone to make them happy, but for my view on this it is being independent. This artist uses level horizon,


 * 1) The second photo is an interior escape. The artist is Silva grav. The mood of this photo is very superstitious, and creepy. We have the black cat and if it crosses your path you will have many years of bad luck. But for this photo I loved her use of the window, reflecting off the cats body making him look a little ghost like, maybe a bit shadowy and mysterious. You don’t know what the cat will do, this photo makes my head bounce to all different ideas how to portray this photo. I also really enjoy the graininess in the photo making it look a bit older and worn out, then a completely newer photo. This artist uses rule of thirds by having the two windows and the cat coming from out of the shadows in the middle.


 * 1) The third photo is another interior escape. The artist is unknown. The mood of the photo is very calm, and happy. We have people minding their own business you don’t know how their day has been, or who they are. They just are happy to be their enjoying themselves. The artist uses leading lines with all the people and the chairs.
