Set 1: Analyzing the Selections

All Photos

The Yellow Selection

I chose them because they looked pleasing, and they also aligned with a part of my vision, mentioning taking photos of objects we see every day, such as trees, buildings, water, etc. Also, these were effective photos; they had the shutter speed, aperture, aperture, composition, and distance from the subject that I desired.

The Green Selection

The Green Selection is where I used photos from my previous selection to pick ones that aligned with my vision. This selection was not just about the subject, but about how I can show my vision— to convey the purity and detail of this world.

The Red Selection

The Red selection is where I tighten my standards, only using photos that I thought could demonstrate my vision to the maximum. Also, considering this could be in my final triptych, I looked for photos that belonged to similar sets. For my next shoot, I will have to work on further tightening my standards. I think I had an unclear view of what my subject would be, primarily due to the lack of places to take pictures in school. This led to a vague selection of photos, leading to me not being the most satifisied with this set.

 

Additionally, for my next set, from the lessons I have learned from this set, I will make some changes. I think I will do something with a low shutter speed, creating an obscure view. Something like this-

This keeps the distinct black and white contrast, yet the tone difference is not to emphasize detail on shapes and patterns, but to create the feeling of uncertainty.

Here are some of my other ideas:

Trees again!
