My Red Photo Analysis:

This photo shows an alley locked behind an iron fence thats corroded. On the two sides, deserted buildings stood tall under a dreamy sky, forming a strong contrast. The center of focus eventually points to the spot where the floor meets the cloud, but its seems very far, as if it could only be seen but not reached. The close up texture for the gate is also amazingly clear, so the audience could easily ‘feel’ the photo and build connections instead of only seeing it.

 

Jon Bilous Photo Analysis:

I really liked the overall use of color in this image. The whole photo is filled with bright paintings, white clouds and a very blue sky, which presented audience with a delightful mood. The overall focus also points towards the center, which I imitated in my photo, to a disappearing point. The use of shapes and texture on both sides was also an interesting use of element, which further included details for viewers to appreciate. Although this photo is not quite abstract, some of the key points became very useful for my set, and I learnt a lot from this image to place on my photo above.
