Photos 8: Sense of Movement

 Photo 1:
    The movement of the golden arches. The movement of those arches on the cups, fries, and the holder for the nuggets. Red and yellow color scheme. Thank you McDonalds.

 Photo 2:
    I was sitting on a Peewee Dolly from this past weekend on a shoot. I thought our shadows looked interesting on the pavement. How the dolly grip is facing you can tell which way we were headed. Also, the camera is facing the direction we were headed. I love shadows. I love how stretched the subjects can be. The black contrasts well on the pavement.

 Photo 3:
     The beautiful Provo Canyon. I loved the reds, the yellows, and blues. I thought the movement of the water was nice and how you can follow the yellow across the frame. This was during golden hour so it was great to see the light fire up those yellows on the trees.

 Photo 4:
     I thought the clouds in the blue sky had a nice movement at the canyon. I wanted to leave a lot of head room for the mountains.

Photo 5:
    This tree that barely has any bark on it caught my eye. It stood out from the crowd of trees. I would have liked to have a similar tree in the background to have more movement. There is a lot of clutter in the frame so it is difficult to see the movement but I tried to capture the vertical movement of the trees.

  1. The dark and light contrast is so so so nice in Photo #3. The gold light on those trees is really stunning.

  2. I am digging the shapes of your shadows in the second photo. Really cool how they are stretched like that creating the perception that it isn't real almost.

  3. You're so cool riding that peewee! I'm jealous. I don't really like McDonald's but I noticed that the red and yellow colors still make me hungry. Funny how that works!

  4. I just realized my comment didn't really have anything to do with the visual elements in your photographs... I think the last photo has the most interesting movement for me. The bright tree catches my attention and I followed it up instead of down the trunk since the top is cut out of the frame. This created a sense of open space for me.
