Zielsdorf-Place

The photo entitled //Landscape/Boat/Sky/Beach//, taken by Cuba Gallery, is a landscape. In most of Gallery's photos he takes beautiful images of outdoor areas, and gives them a more thought provoking meaning behind them. It makes viewers think about why people would go to this certain place and what it would mean to them. The particular photo I chose to include in my banner depicts a summery, adventurous feeling. I feel that people would go to this place to fulfill their need to explore. The artist used the compositional techniques of rule of thirds and leading lines to make the photo more interesting to look at, and lead you to what the artist wants the focal point of the picture to be. http://www.flickr.com/photos/36587311@N08/4947478823/in/photolist-8xc862-bSTUCH-6XsbN7-9xGAtQ-8SLH4N-9fggix-9f1YvP-6FKjrn-8h5oaf-9YkCG2-bdJtdz-68DBHT-aqpUih-ajieD3-9zyF4E-avGJL8-fTJS2e-cj36ZU-fdJ2ET-fk1d9R-eFTmTS-foZUq2-g4XXGN-f7HjBa-fpT9ZJ-ecAJvn-aexRuR-52WEks-fUHqDf-fUHuSp-9auNuV-aj9Je4-4xMWpe-8qPRPJ-aAPGoe-68Dz4c-9JCaB9-9bFF4r-9928bV-afCDs7-9dwKju-aoacDn-dkrH48-7ZbmE8-dMYRMg-cXGf4f-bDEfvo-dfoQGD-btFG9r-cUGiEo-cX2GEm

The photo titled //Bedroom//, taken by Katie Shelton, is an interior-scape. Katie Shelton takes many pictures with available and artificial lighting inside of her house. Although the images she takes can be very simple, they are also very relatable because I spend a lot of time in my house and in my room. The picture I chose to incorporate by her depicts a warm and sleepy feeling. But also, content and calm. By looking at this picture, I would guess that this room is a place for Shelton to unfold after a long day, and just think and relax. Shelton used the compositional techniques of rule of thirds, fill the frame, and leading lines in this picture. The leading lines come from the strings of lights on the walls, because they make your eyes move all around the photo. Also, because she filled the frame it makes the room seem smaller, which gives the picture a cozier feeling. http://www.flickr.com/photos/9129830@N03/4141173413/in/photolist-7iWAzB-8Yp9by-4Gq7Wi-5FQiS2-5QmSxr-5KgRMZ-5J3d93-6xF2j1-8yLa2m-6pUAGR-dDZyZw-5Jj6Ci-5SCyEc-2QqFu7-4f1VEK-7pghkb-7pcqbz-dxY6Kj-vakWx-dKe1ei-92heW9-eaosSS-b3pA7D-4h76Gw-5Brn8v-b8zD5z-dQXEeR-5W8YWE-7k74Np-7k754g-4r9Bma-dDbJ7C-8tZm83-b1xuJe-7ssSP9-aTXRYk-6KsxST-7NX8qq-5LYq6n-tuESV-aXr3nn-aZV5b6-4gHxgK-7v5msZ-6zAUWb-dJqb9G-7hFCTn-aPik7c-8Tr6hH-cDMA1m-6pSDCz

The photo of Goldschmeidgasse in Vienna, Austria, taken by Gabriele Tudico, is a cityscape. Tudico takes many photos of both cityscapes and landscapes, but also incorporates a lot of architectural aspects in them. Most of his pictures give off a feeling of joyfulness and love for the world around us. In the image I chose, despite the fact that it is winter time, the photo depicts a warm and cozy feeling. Many of the places I want to take pictures of also give off this mood, so that is why I chose to include this one in my banner. The artist used the compositional techniques of leading lines in this photo with the lights because it leads my eyes all the way to the back of this image. This image influenced me to not only take pictures of interior-scapes and landscapes, but also cityscapes because they too can be beautiful, interesting, and meaningful. http://www.flickr.com/photos/91853021@N05/8348016282/in/photolist-dHFLpd-4LMmiQ-ef77L-Dd1oK-h87vvM-h88TAz-Dd1ov-h88Tdv-rXBoe-a8SiMa-gcXvJt-gcYATT-gcXqk1-gdMKGw-5BXmot-5BYA91-hnChHC-h7Q2oV-gV4Mj7-3Qg94-gcXLQv-gcYJsa-gcXFtj-h7NQ2Z-h7NMHo-fD1cxv-fHpxDq-fGBrtC-h86Zzo-h86XVm-h7NLBc-h7MmKt-gsaKfZ-5BUhTk-h7Mzq9-gsabAQ-h86Em4-huovoW-h5ZGsm-9Ai4rm-h5ZH5d-br8yVe-haiycU-haikoh-hais8u-haijzp-haijQd-haiz8y-haimC2-hajFeM-haixGh

 * Printing Technique**

The inkAid printing technique allows you to make photographs transfer into something that looks almost like a painting. For my project, I want to use either previous pictures I have of my grandparents house in Michigan, or photos I have from vacation places my family has traveled to many times. This printing technique works for both of my ideas because they both are places I have been many times. This method will allow my pictures to have beautiful brush strokes, even though I did not actually paint them. Each of these places both have natural lighting, except if I go inside in each of them I will use available light. The mood I want to portray is both content and peaceful, but also excited and happy to be where I am. If I do Michigan it will be a landscape, and if I do St. Anthony's it will be an interior scape or it will be architectural. The final image will probably be around 8 x 10, and I want to print onto either wood, or cloth. Both of these will allow me to go even farther into my concept, and even make the picture more meaningful.

This is an image of printing on glass, which I am also interested in doing for my project. By doing this, it will allow the colors and life in my pictures to come out more. Since I want to use pictures from mainly vacations, they will be bright and full of life. Printing on glass will not only making my pictures more modern, but it will also bring out my concept even more.
