Anderson-place

All three pictures were taken outdoors. These three really stood out to me just because of how beautifully everything was set up. All of these images have a gloomy feel to them because of the colors and the fogginess and eeriness. They seemed lifeless. They are all landscape pictures. Brett Weston usually does black and white photos of the outdoors, and this first image is exactly that. Sally Mann takes black and white pictures that are typically of people--especially young women--but this particular one is outdoors. Ansel Adams typically takes pictures of mountainous landscapes. This is portrayed in the third picture. All three pictures show a compositional technique of level horizon, leading lines, and rule of thirds. =====

I will be printing onto a cheesecloth type fabric for this design. This will illustrate my concept by giving my piece an earthy and natural looking design. My photo will be of the outdoors(a field in my backyard lined with woods), somewhere I've been playing outside since I was little, and I wanted to keep my piece looking more rustic. My mood will portray a playful yet kind of gloomy feeling, since I grew up there, but rarely go anymore. There will be kind of overcast lighting since it's been so foggy outside lately. My final image will be 8x10 so it's not overwhelmingly big, but it will also be bordered by tattered, worn cloth, so total it might be closer to 11x13.
