This photo displays a pepper with a distorted shape and reflection. The photographer, Edward Weston, attempts to capture the naturalistic form of objects while emphasizing the texture of the pepper, creating visual tension. The reflection of the pepper amplifies its smoothness and creates a more immersive experience for the viewer as if physically touching it. The light and color also maximize the intricacy of the pepper and its details. The use of texture imposes vibrance on the pepper, making it almost a 3-dimensional object. The use of tone addresses the depth of the pepper by using color contrasts of black and white. This photo is sharply focused, accompanied by a black background to guide the viewer’s attention and minimize any extra elements in the scene.
