"Same Subject: Different Points of View"





  • there wasnt any special feeling taking these pictures, but i do enjoy taking pictures of different vantage points like this.
  • different vantage points give you a different perspective of the subject
  • my favorite photo out of these is the zoomed in, i like it because you can see all the details of the tractor.
  • i didnt have any problems taking these photos

Photo Analysis: Point of View (Photograph 2)

                 my evaluation
    • Composition: (Describe the shapes, lines and patterns in the picture)
    • Focus: shawn is the focus of the picture the crowd is more of the background
    • Framing:some of the crowd and the other band members are cut off
    • Background: his other band members
    • Foreground:the crowd
    • Subject:the subject is shawn milke, and he is really into the song he is singing
    • People / Clothing: everyone is wearing all black or band shirts
    • Pose: shawn is kneeling, the crowd is moving and singing along
    • Expression: shawn is feeling the emotion in which he wrote the song
    • Action:kneeling down, because its an emotional part of the song
    • Lighting:darker lighting, coming from behind shawn make you notice him more than anything
    • Point of View: they took the picture to the side of shawn sort of behind him,
    • Meaning: the photographer took the picture like this beacuse it shows the emotion of both shawn and the crowd, showing how the song impacts both shawn and the audience

    • Setting: Dirt road, forest
    • Background: trees, dirt, rocks
    • Foreground: dirt road
    • Focus: the stuffed dog is in focus, trees and some of the road is blurred
    • Vantage Point / Point of View: close too and behind the stuffed dog
    • Composition: ragged trees, grainy dirt road, black and white, grimy stuffed dog
