Artist Statement:
This week in photography we learned several new techniques and one new idea. These techniques are leading lines, repetition, and depth staging. The new idea is called depth. In the first section of photos, leading lines are formed when there are one or more lines that lead from the foreground into the background. I demonstrated this technique by taking photos with strong lines that fade into the background. This is able to attract the attention of the audience. In the second batch of photos, there is repetition among the objects that fade further and further into the background again creating depth. I showed repetition by finding a large group of objects and taking the photo at an angle to show that the objects lead into the background. In the last group of photos, there are two main objects. One is very close to the camera while the other is further behind in order to show the distance and depth. I recreated this by finding objects in the room and placing one further away than the other.

  5. I really liked your repetition and leading lines photos this week. I think not all of the leading lines photos were obviously leading lines, which makes it better. The repetition photos were awesome because I loved the angles you got with the camera!

  6. Hi Steven, I really liked the purity of your photos, in that there is a clear focus on depth in all of them with no extraneous details. You could probably have eliminated the titles and descriptions and we could still tell exactly what it is about. Great job!
