I had trouble with the technological aspect of masking. I think the outcomes are interesting, but this is not my favorite photo technique due to the fact that it alters the image so much. In some cases I think this looks really cool, but I think the fact that I had such a hard time with it, made it less enjoyable.
I am not good with the technological aspects of life. For this reason, I didn't love doing the layering assignment. Once I got started, I did start to have fun and play with the photos. I think that I did well with introducing texture into some of the photos, I would have liked to be more creative, but I like the way these turned out.
Composition aspects make photos more memorable. Having good technical aspects in the image will create the message meant to be shown. In the left image, the emphasis is clearly on the child, but his surroundings are important in order to show what he is doing. The color in the right photo also creates emotion. The blackness of his face really shows his conditions, and the white of his eyes brings emphasis to how hard he is working. Both of these images are memorable because of how well they are composed.
Josef Sudek is a black and white still life photographer. I really like his work. I think it is really cool that he showcases weather and different surroundings in his work. The images are also really interesting because some of them have very high contrast and others don't have as defined contrast. This is the kind of work I think of when I think of amazing photography. This type of work has the ability to tell a story so much more than color photos do.
