My practice drastically changed once going into quarantine. I found it very difficult to have any motivation once being home all the time. This is especially because I was mainly photographing people. I was no longer able to photograph people in the same way, and ended up mainly photographing my brother in different metroparks in the Toledo area. This proved to be a challenge as I could no longer shoot on film either, and my dslr stopped working a week into quarantine. This led to most of my photos being phone pics. With these limitations I tried to play off of weird projects I already had been doing. My photos for mom series are literal phone pictures I have always taken for my mom of my brother and I doing weird things in parks. This also drew off of my idea to make eye-spy type pictures of my brother and I hiding in the trees. The last of my film photos are also stuck as edited TIFFs. I was unable to download photoshop as my laptop has no storage, and the files were too big for...
*gasP* night picture??? I love these. I feel like these images are categorized into two groups pretty night city pictures and cool mysterious dark images. The city picture seem to be edited very well, the bright lights cut through the darkness of the environment very well and fill the frame very well. Image 1,2,3, and 7 with lower levels of light give a more mysterious and secretive vibe. These pictures pull me into investigate the image. I don't know what to say after this so ill end it.
ReplyDeleteDeanna, I love your night photography. The 8th and 10th photos are my favorites. Photo 8 has a lot of low light bouncing off the other walls and creating an interesting atmosphere. Photo 10 has the lovely gleaming water reflections of the skyscrapers above. Great use of color and light there! It’s always more difficult shooting at night and trying to make sure our photos come out the way we want them to go!
