The images that I chose represented interior scape, exterior scape, and nature scape. **Who is the artist and what is the title of the image? What kind of work do they do? How does this image show that type of work?**
 * What type of space do these images represent (landscape, cityscape, etc.)?**
 * What mood is evoked by the artist?**
 * 1) This image evoked a thoughtful and confusing mood, because of how the ways the large gears are placed.
 * 2) This image evoked a haunting but peaceful mood, because of how the wall around the door look like they are falling apart and the door just looks very peaceful to me. It looks worn, but at the same time, it looks untouched.
 * 3) This image evoked a very peaceful and calming mood, because of how the archway looks like a window to something from the past. Almost like you could look through it and see what this place would of looked like way back when.
 * 1) Shaun O'Boyle is the professional photographer that take a lot of his photographs in abandoned places and a lot of his photography is black and white. Also, a lot of his photographs look very organic. //Flywheel in// //Gas Blowing Engine Room, Bethlehem Steel Mill, Bethlehem, PA// shows this, because it looks very organic and it is also in black and white. The place also looks a little abandoned.
 * 2) Paul Politis is a self-taught photographer who has been showcasing black and white photography on the web since 1998. He also seems to like to take a lot of photography of abandoned places. // Doorway to Abandoned House // shows his type of work, because it is black and white and shows the haunting but peaceful mood of this abandoned house.
 * 3) Jason Gabriel is a photographer from Flickr who seems to take photographs for a hobby (it is hard to tell because there isn't a bio about him on Flickr). A lot of his photograph is is urban and cityscapes, landscapes, and of animals. Many of his photographs are in black in white and all of them have great detail.. //Insied Bolton Abby// shows his type of work, because it has great detail and it has a very creative feel. Also it is a landscape photograph.
 * What type of compositional techniques (leading lines, rule of thirds, framing, fill the frame, level horizon, focal point and point of view) does the artist use to create their portraits? **
 * 1) In this photograph, there are three compositional techniques: leading lines, framing, fill the frame, and point of view. There are leading lines in the large gears and the first gear frames the second one. Also, the large gears are filling the frame and the photograph is a interesting point of view, because you are looking inside a large gear into another gear.
 * 2) In this photograph, there are three compositional techniques: leading lines, level horizon and focal point. There are leading lines in the wall surrounding the door and there are also leading lines within the door itself. Also,you can see a level horizon where the doorstep is. Finally, the door in the middle of the photograph is the focal point.
 * 3) In this photograph, there are four compositional techniques: leading lines, framing, level horizon, and a focal point. There are leading lines in the lines of a arch and the lead your eye up the photograph. There is also framing within the arch, because the arch looks like it is framing the sky, almost like that part of the sky is a photograph itself. Finally, there is a level horizon and the focal point of the part of the sky that is being framed by the arch.

media type="youtube" key="eN89-ceFJ-U" width="420" height="315" I am hoping to print my final photograph on wood (preferably barn wood or some sort of distressed wood). I will illustrate my concept for this project by possibly using a urban scape or a natural scape. I think that the contrast of the old wood and the urban scape or the natural scape will make it look more interesting. I would like for my image to look old, but have a very thoughtful and/or mysterious feel to it. I want the viewer to feel their own emotions, not my emotions. I want them to put themselves in that place and feel what they want to feel. The mood that I would like to portray is thoughtful. (I explained why in the question above) I would like to illustrate either a urban scape or a landscape, because I feel like those two types of places would look best on wood. I'm guessing that my piece of wood will be a smaller board (but bigger than 8 x 11 though). There will be a border of wood also.
