Fine Art- Drains

For my fine art project in photography, I wanted to focus on something that most students don't concentrate on. Around school, drains are everywhere! I went around school taking pictures of the many different sizes and shapes that the drains come in.

Describe: After editing my photographs and reviewing what I have done, I see color and shape. My purpose was to display photographs of drains that students wouldn't really be fascinated by. I didn't use different objects because the I didn't want my purpose to be distracted by added objects. I am satisfied with the end results.

Analyze: After reviewing my photos, I see texture, line, color, and shape. I added color to the image because I didn't want a picture of a drain to be boring. I wanted to liven my photographs by showing off the line, texture, and shape. To further express those qualities I added color to enhance the image.

Interpret: I just wanted to communicate the beauty of drains by focusing on the shapes and texture. My conversations with peers don't ever consist of drains so I wanted my audience to look at something that is everywhere but not focused on. One of my image doesn't have color, in order to see how I edited it you have to enlargen it. After uploading it onto Blogger, the texture was lost. All my images were taken outdoors with natural light.

Judge: Overall, I am happy with my final work and impressed with how I have grown as a photographer. At first I was stressed with Fine Art Photography, but I told myself to get creative and now my images look great. (In my opinion).
