Analysis
This photo is of a glass dome that has captured oxygen, then it has been pressurized to create condensation on the inside. I believe that this photo is very effective through the use of brightness and direction. This is achieved through the bright dome that is towards the left of the composition. This composition is effective in mirroring my influencing artists practice as it displays simplicity and makes an interesting subject. This is achieved through the use of 30-60-10. 30% of the photograph includes the red tubing, the Star Wars timer, the taps and the pressuriser behind the stopwatch. 60% is the glass dome and 10% is the rest of the composition.





Friday 1st September - mindmap

Thursday - 31st August

This lesson, I tried updating my blog with photoshop edits of my photos that I took during the weekend, but Blogger wouldn't upload my photos.

The Weekend

On the weekend, I went to the Western Sydney Uni open day in an attempt to capture some Bresson-influenced compositions.

This photo was from the Friday before the Weekend.

Screen Capture




With some photos, I used photoshop and did some editing.




































I borrowed a school camera for the weekend, but at lunch, I went to Mr. Ku's Physics tutorial to try and get some photos. This was the only decent photo that I created.

This lesson, I created a mind map for the ideas for my Cartier inspired artwork. After that, I was finished and I decided to revisit some of my older work in photoshop.
