Journal 1: Light as Subject Matter

This picture is interesting to me because it is a very good picture to represent reflection and shadow. Also this interests me because I really like the way the artist focused the camera on the street light. I think he does this so it evens out the lighting with the darkness. Another thing that I like about this photo is that the design is very cool because the puddles and fog on the street really stand out and complete the picture. Without the artist using reflection the picture would be kind of dull to me because it would be too dark.

This picture caught my attention because it is really dark and then there is this big doorway of light that really stands out. This is an example of light vs. dark. Another reason why this attracted me is because the fox makes it a unique picture. I think this because if it were just the doorway it would be kind of plain but since the fox is there it changes my view on the photo. That is why I enjoyed this picture.

This picture interests me because it is very unique and detailed. This is an example of shadow and black vs. white. Another reason why I like this picture is because it makes me think about graduating because of the hats on the students. Without the hats on the students it would just be a regular picture to me. Another feature that stood out to me was the contrast between black and white.
