Available Light - Shadow_Due Friday September 18

Update: October 13.  Grade A-

 We had the critique for this assignment during our class period last week.  Instructor's comments:

              "Thank you for your persistence.  I like two of your images very much.  They 
               contain qualities beyond just mere highlight shadow relationships.  I find them 
               to be full of depth and mystery.  They really draw in a viewer, without one getting 
               caught up in the question of what they are looking at.  Te one, which now I must 
               say has a leaf like appearance could hang on the wall in my opinion.  It seems to 
               float freely in some kind of space."


He is referencing my favorite image from this assignment - so great minds really do think alike.....  :)


I just emailed the images for this assignment.  They were supposed have a mysterious, abstract or artistic theme.  Cliff gave us a couple of examples of what he was looking for.  They were both botanicals on the dark, moody side.  My images are a bit lighter and I think
abstract and artistic if not mysterious.  These images  were all captured in color and converted to black and white in Lightroom.






This is my favorite of the four I submitted for the critique.






I'm anxious to know what the instructor thinks.  The critique will probably be Tuesday and I will still be in Chicago, so I will miss the class discussion, but I know he will have a grade and comments for me when I return.
