Somenske+Portrait



= Image 1: = This image uses mainly available light probably from a window because there is no other light being shined directly onto the subject. Another hint that there is some available light is the shadow that is created behind the subject. One compositional technique used in this portrait is the rule of thirds because the subject is slightly off center and in the lower two-thirds of the image. This portrait was taken by Richard Avendon and can be found on his website: http://www.avedonfoundation.org/

= Image 2: = The lighting in this portrait looks like it is mostly studio light since she is lit primarily from the front and there is no harsh lighting directly on her. The compositional technique that was most prominently used was filling the frame because she takes up most of the photo. Her arms, fingers, and hair also create subtle leading lines through the image. This portrait is the work of Annie Leibovits and was taken from http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/annie-leibovitz-photo-gallery/19/

= Image 3: = The last image is taken with natural light since the subject is outside. Even though it is rainy and dark, there is still no other light added to the scene The main compositional technique used is framing becasue the man is being framed by the car. This image is one of many taken by Timothy White. This image and all of his others can be found at his website: http://timothywhite.com/
