Repetition Project

For the repetition project, I want to use this ad campaign by Dior for inspiration.  In the ad, Chinese people are repeated in photoshop and one model dressed differently stands out from amongst the crowd.  I want to use this sort of idea as inspiration.

Details

I have seen an exhibition of Edward Weston's photographs at the Amon Carter museum, in which dark, abstract, close-up pictures of vegetables were displayed. I want to use his photographs as inspiration for the details project.

I like this picture of an artichoke because it is completely abstract. 

I like this picture of chard because because it looks like an organ.

I like this picture because of the lighting and shadows created by the contour of the pepper.

Fashion Ideas

I want to do a "Wizard of Oz," themed shoot to commemorate Summit's marching band show this year. It will have a dark edge to it, just as these photographs by Annie Liebovitz do.

Time Exposure Ideas

I like the symmetry and the way the light flares. Also this seems doable, and I hope to be able to emulate this in a photograph.

Photographer Unknown

I also like the way the light flares in this picture, and I have a location that I may be able to use for this.

Tyler Westcott

I love the movement of the stars in this picture, as well as the lighter colors created by the long exposure.

These three pictures, by Rodney Smith, are my inspiration for the architecture project. I want my pictures to be black and white, which I believe accentuates architectural detail, and also to include people in a manner that adds rather than detracts from the image.

Inspiration for Portrait Project

This photograph by Jeremy Geranen captures the essence of what I want to portray with this project.  The tones, the emotion, and the feel of this photograph embody my vision for the photographs I will produce.


More inspiration:

The tones, the light, the expression, the darkness, the mystery.

I like that the image would have been symmetrical from a slightly different angle, but instead, the symmetry is implied.
