PHOTOGRAPHY

FOREGROUND/BACKGROUND:

i have chosen this picture because of the sharp colours used and high contrast level of which appeals to me. another reason why i have chosen this image is that it demonstrates how the background and foreground an coincide to make a good picture. in the background there is a beach fence and in the foreground is an empty bottle. this could represent drinking on the beach in the summer sun.

LIGHT AND SHADE 

i have chosen this picture because of the monochrome feel to is. the colours are consisting of sharp blacks and whites, connoting nostalgia. another reason why i have chosen this image is that it shows the clever use of light and shade in the photo to connote mystery. this is because the main parts of the woman's body looks like a silhouette, inferring that she is mysterious and not to be seen. the use of light coming from behind her could suggest that she is a ghost coming from heaven due to walking out of the light. the dress combined with the above creates an mysterious, angelic feel to the image. both light and shade work effectively together in this image. 

LINES AND SHAPES

i have chosen this picture because of the clever use of lines in different directions within the image. triangular shapes are also seen at the bottom and top of the photographs representing shapes.
