This image of a window represents a mindscape and/or inner space. This is because there seems to be a subliminal mood that ties along with the image, and the image is shot inside an inner space. The mood that the artist seems to try to be evoking is serenity away from society, because the artist positioned the camera to make the viewer seem to be looking out the window in sadness and loneliness. The artist, Betsie Nel, focuses more on shooting photographs of objects that have interesting texture and deep color. The artist uses many textures in this image, with the wood and smooth walls, as well as a deep mood that results in the choice of colors. The artist uses framing, through the use of the window frame that frames outside. She also uses fill the frame, by filling the photograph with the window. In her other images, she uses a lot of level horizon and fill the frame.

The image of the Place de l'Opéra represents a cityscape. This is because it is shot in the city of Paris and is a candid image of the city. The mood of the image is repetitivity and combustion, because of the neverending revolution of people and vehicles moving around the city circle. The artist positioned herself so we can see an overview of this part of the city and she froze time in order to take a glimpse of the city. The artist, Thierry Ollivier, shoots many photographs of nature landscapes, cityscapes, and buildings. She likes to portray a simple mood and freeze time using photograph. This photograph is a great example of her artwork, because she takes a photograph of a cityscape and freezes time, which is one of her common concepts. She uses a great job with rule of thirds by dividing the image into thirds, the center being of the sidewalk and the two outer thirds being buildings. She also uses leading lines with the subtle lines of light that revolve around the city circle.

This image represents an inner space, because it is shot inside of either an airport or subway station. The mood of the photograph seems to be balance and/or symmetry, because of the cookie-cutter look that the symmetrical photo evokes, showing how humans need to be organized in order to move about society. The Artist is Roberto Oggiano, who is a spanish photographer who likes to shoot a wide range of photos, whether its nature, people, or industrial architecture. This image shows a great example of his work, because he seems to follow a constant mood of “pausing society”. The compositional technique used was leading lines, because the escalator rails lead you up the escalator. There is also arguable leading lines with the posts on the wall of windows. He also used fill the frame by framing the escalator fully within the image, but still left some outside details, like the windows and posts. He also used the point of view from the bottom of the escalator, showing that he has not started the long journey up the escalator.

 * How To Glass Print**

media type="youtube" key="S_X60nxRqyE" width="560" height="315" The technique that I am using will portray my mood of personal serenity and joy, because the glass is transparent and society looks right through it. My concept for the project is either at church or the woods in my backyard. The woods is a place that I would always go to as a kid, whether it be building forts or playing in the snow. The church has been a place that I have grow up a part of and is an important aspect of my life. The glass with help show that light (life) shines right into the glass and through it. My image will be transparent with the help of the opacity, because it will allow for light to shine through it. I will use natural available light and/or natural cloud light, because I want the lighting to be subtle and go with the mood of personal serenity. If I choose to do the woods, it will be a landscape, because it is within nature. If I choose to use the church as my concept, it will be an interiorscape, because it is an interior room. The final image will be around 16x24, because I want the image to be large and shine through the glass background.
