For me this was the hardest of the assignments we've had in class. After looking at this photo for a few days I believe I understand why I like it. Initially I didn't feel like this really portrayed what I was wanting to portray. I had my own vision/concept of what I wanted for my subject and I felt like this didn't do it justice. However, there is something with this image that connects me to the subject. I feel like I am actually looking at a living, breathing, person; not just a screen with pixels populating it. And that right there is why this image works for me.
One of its qualities is you can't stop looking at it; texture, depth, contrast, but who cares? It's authentic and perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing photo. It's amazing how you were able to capture the soul even without props or other people.
