Photos as Art

Lily Wiser 2013

BalanceI chose this photo because the two

urns on the side balance out the pyramid and the mummy.

SimplicityI chose this photo because the simple sand looking tile allows you to focus on the mummy.

LinesI chose this photo for lines because the brush and the wood carved lines on the table make lines and a background fro the mummy and sarcophagus.

Rule of ThirdsThis photo was chosen for rule of

thirds because the mummy is leaning against the pyramid in the lower right cross section.

FramingThe urn is being

surrounded by the four sides of the pyramid allowing the urn to be framed.

Extreme Close UpThis shot was chosen for extreme

close up because of how close I got to the pyramid allowing you to see the hieroglyphics on the side.

LightingI chose the photo for lighting

because the natural light is bringing out the border and ridges of the pyramid.

ColorI chose this photo for color because the

urns are resting on the sandy looking window sill and the white and clear-ish curtain is making a background.

Black and WhiteThis photo is my black and white

photo because the ridges in the chair to me represented the ripples in The Nile River.

Editing TechniqueI chose this photo to edit because

instead of black and white I changed it to gray scale that way it looked like a snapshot.

My Theme Was Egypt
