Reflection- Proposed Project

1. My theme ended up being nature with a hint of whimsicality, hence the faeries.

2. The Deku Tree, for example, alludes to its namesake in the Legend of Zelda games. The Angel game a calm serenity that gives the viewer a sense of peace. And the other pictures portray parts of nature that I felt left a lot to the viewers' inmagination. The catptions served as my take.

3. My main issue was deviance from my original theme: fantasy. However, due to AP testing and other obligations, I fell behind on other assignments. This prevented my from putting in as much time. My shooting mainly consisted of quick scenes in and out of my neighborhood. Next time, I feel, I should turn in anything before the due date and just go back and edit it. However, that's impractical, so it might be better to just pick a more reasonable project next time.

4. My pictures usually used a large aperture for a focus on different plants. The white flower, used repetition in a consistent pattern, providing unity. The wine piicture used the same technique. The wide angle angel picture used contrast with the staute, dominant figure, in the dark and the ray of sun from the top right. Some of the pictures have a bokoh effect. It was an effect to see the whole picture, a metaphor.

5. I would tell the other student to focus mainly on being realistic and being on top of things. This project has a lot of photos: a large time commitment. Therefore, it is imperative to make sure you don't fall behind.
