The Line


(Monday) I just thought this looked interesting, almost like competing lines between the trees and the parked cars. I tried to line it up with the rhythm and line of the shot, leveling out to a nice central vanishing point.

A Fire in the Sky

Again, just a nice opportunity. I really like the slow lead of the mountain line to the sun. Although i think it would have worked much better going left to right, not right to left. On a deeper level its interesting to see nature (the mountain) overshadowing industry (the building), but its still ambiguous, since we don't know if the light is coming or going.
Exhausted Tree

(For Wednesday November 25th) Pretty straight forward. I saw a cool opportunity, and pulled out my camera. The very obscure angle, with all the jagged lines, is nice, and the smoke does add a nice effect with the cold nature of the photo.
Earthquake

(For Tuesday November 24th) Just juxtaposing the symmetry, with dynamic lines and structure. I really like how it changes the feel of a picture so much, by a simple turn. The front pole dirtying the frame is nice, i also wish i had centered the dome in the middle so that it still led to the same spot as the last one.
The Dome

(For Monday November 23rd) Just looking for opportunities of symmetry with lines. This one is still a little crooked, but i like how it guides your eye to the center. It is pretty well balanced, except for the tree.
Brother Waltz and His Sidekick

(For Friday November 20th) Same as last picture, we were just playing with the coincidence lighting/tone alongside concealing the subject (Wes). Trying to do both is difficult, but it adds emphasis on the fact that one is hidden.
Chris Waltz

(For Thursday November 19th) We were trying to mimic some non coincidence of tone from Spectre. This works well to conceal the subject, and adds a sense of horror, since we can't see who the subject is... AH!
