In this set of architectural photographs, I captured the lines and symmetrical designs of modern buildings. I aimed to emphasize the curves, patterns, and interplay of light and shadow. Focusing on transparency and structural design, I sought to convey a futuristic mood through my compositions. The use of colors such as white, silver, and blue further enhances this futuristic aesthetic. Techniques like wide-angle perspectives, precise framing, low ISO settings, and natural lighting were employed to highlight the intricate details, resulting in a clear and modern set of photos. This connects to my artist research and intentions, as the two artists I studied are closely related to exploring structural and symmetrical designs in architecture. They also use vivid colors to accentuate the details of buildings, aligning with my approach and vision.

In my structure photography, I want to focus on structures like buildings, building interiors, and other urban elements. I like to capture the lines, shapes, and spaces that make up these structures, interesting patterns or symmetry. I try to use light and shadows to highlight the details, and use wide-angle lenses to show different perspectives.

Iwan Baan is a Dutch photographer was born on February 8, 1975, in Alkmaar, Netherlands. famous for capturing buildings in a way that shows how people use and live in them. His photos often include the surrounding environment, making the architecture feel alive and connected to its setting. He is famous for photographing projects like the Torre David in Venezuela and Zaha Hadid’s Heydar Aliyev Center, showing how buildings fit into everyday life. He often uses wide angle lens and  use natural light to create the mood. In these photos Baan emphasizes geometry, light, and depth. The first image uses curved, flowing lines to draw attention to the form of the structure, while sunlight light shins through to highlight its roof. The second photo captures a symmetrical perspective, looking upward to show the repeating patterns and textures of the building, with elevators adding a sense of motion in the photo. The third image frames a circular opening in the ceiling, showing its texture and light threads through the opening, creating a strong focal point.

Ezra Stoller was an American photographer who focused on modern buildings from the 20th century. He worked with famous architects like Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe, taking clear and beautifully photos of landmarks like the Guggenheim Museum and Falling water. His work helped people understand modern architecture. These photos from Stroller focus on showing the beauty and design of the buildings. The first image highlights the Guggenheim Museum’s spiral shape, and the focal point is the skylight at the center. The second photo looks up at the layers of the building, giving a sense of depth and how the spaces connect. The third image shows the building’s curved shape from the outside, with light and shadow making it look clean and smooth. Stroller use a lot of  black-and-white style that can make the details of the building stand out.

Street Photography

In this picture I used a aperture of F11 and shutter speed of 8s and iso of 64, to create a feeling of speed. This photo shows light trails from cars on a busy road at night. The white and red lines make it look like the cars are moving fast. The dark sky and streetlights in the background make the bright lights stand out to show the liveliness of the city.

In this picture I used a slow exposer and a high iso, and used the light to draw the circle behind Jungyoon. Also in this picture I used a slower shutter speed about 5s then the one below to blur the person in the photo. Furthermore, this photo creates a dreamy and mysterious feeling. The soft blurs and bright light make it look unreal. Jungyoon in the middle seems to mix with the light, creating a calm and quiet mood.

In this picture I used a aperture of 4.0 and shutter speed of 0.3 and iso of 400 to show the movement of the lighter. Additionally,  this photo creates a strong contrast with the bright flame glowing against the dark background behind. The hand holding the lighter and the sparks show energy and movement of the flame.
