unusual and interesting photos

Christian's photos are very weird. they are very abstract and confusing. I think he created these photos by layering the photo in different angles. Some buildings that would be cool to do this to would be some of the sky scrapers downtown, such as the capital building and the frost building. To get access to these buildings you could go downtown and take a photo of them.

I thought this photo was interesting because I liked the way the photographer showed the girl in a reflection. I found this photo in the portrait and personality category and it won 2nd place. The photographer used the rule of thirds to place the girl and a simple background. I think that is some of the things the judges saw when they picked this photo. The photographer had to take the photo of the reflection without getting the camera in the photo and they also had to get the right lighting in order to get the shadow of the tree over her face.

This photo stood out to me because it showed to powerful longing for a loved one lost a war. I found this photo under the category returning veterans, coming home, and the photo won first place. the photographer used lines to draw your eye to the woman. Also the lines are at an angle so it is more visually interesting and showed that the lines go somewhere. I think this is partly what the judges were looking at and also probably how the photo is black and white, creating a very sad and gloomy mood. the photographer had to find a sad scene and angle the camera so that the background was just the wall of names.

I picked this photo because it shows a heroic scene where the rescue crew is saving a guy from a fallen log in a flood. this photo was int he domestic news single category and won 3rd place. what got my attention was the movement of the water and the danger of what was happening. I think the judges were probably looking at the balance of the people and the colors. the photographer had to be with the rescue crew at the right place at the right time in order to get the photo.

the advice to take from this drawing was to take a picture of a portrait, a hand, a reflection and show perspective. the photo I found shows all of these elements except for the hand.
