Assignment 3: Place Write-UP Part 2

1. Onlooker
People interpreted this image differently than I imagined. I got several suggestions saying that I should make the horse and carriage and the boy more of the focus of the image so that the image would become more about the . To do this, I might crop out more of the sky and grass.

If I were to make this image into a larger project, I would try to take pictures of people in different locations from far away to examine their postures and the relationship of movement between each other.

2. Duality of Suburbia
During the critique, people understood that the image was about suburban life and the lack of individuality within it. The image was successful in being interesting, however it was said that the sidewalk patterns gave away the fact that it was edited. To expand this image into a bigger project I could take most pictures in neighborhoods looking for things that are identical.

3. Preservation Area
People understood that the image was ridiculous but they did not understand that I was trying to make it seem like the sign was for the neighborhood. I believe I lost some of the midtones when I printed the image, so I think I should try to make the contrast less extreme. I could expand this in way that is similar to image number two.

4. Structure
People could understand this image as well, most people thought it was about man-made objects. In order to help push this concept I should straighten the building in the frame, and get rid of the tree.
