These are the two photos that I selected. I picked these to because I felt that they were the most different. The picture from inside the mailbox was what I thought to be a ah ha moment of thinking outside of the box, no pun intended. The photo which depicts the view from below seems to be more artistic. I find that they are different because they show the mailbox from truly different angles. They are similar in that the angles in which the photos are taken are unusual. I like the photo from below the best because I think that while the mailbox is the centerpiece of the photo, your eye wanders to the clouds and other objects in the photo. This perspective changes the photo because it makes what is really just a boring mailbox more visually appealing.
These are my other photos I shot:
I really like the picture from inside the mail box. That was a great idea! Did you have your camera on auto mode? When I first glanced at your two best pictures, I liked the one from inside the mailbox. When I took a closer look, though I noticed the clouds above the mailbox and how they add such a peaceful and calming element to your image. I also really like the picture of the front of the mailbox with the door closed. I like that it's a close up and that you can see the intricate detail of the door.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Nick!

I love the way you took the photo from inside the mailbox as well! How did you get your camera to do that? I think if you just had one envelop sitting in the mailbox, leaning on the side, It could have enhanced the photo a bit! Just an idea but I love these photos, its something I never would have thought of. Very creative!
ReplyDeleteI like the head on shot where you can also see the house. This angle not only shows the detail on the front of the mailbox but it also gives the photo depth.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was a beautiful day! The picture inside the mailbox is hands down the coolest. I like how you didn't just stay outside and take the pictures. Taking pictures from inside the house was a cool idea. The sky looks incredible as a background for a couple of those shots!
ReplyDeleteThose are some really neat pictures of the mailbox. I really like the one from inside the mailbox and also the one where you took the picture probably from the ground. Having a nice background makes for a great picture!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, I really like the ones inside of the mail box. I also really enjoy the effect the window has in the second to last photo is awesome. One thing I did notice is in the third shot from the bottom, in it you can see a slight reflection from the window in front of the camera.
ReplyDeleteIt's really neat that you captured the inside of the mailbox looking out. It kind of reminds me of being under a tunnel and looking at the end of it.
ReplyDeleteThere are a couple I really like here. I agree that the one from inside the mailbox is great - I wonder what it would look like if you if you tried cropping it a bit? I also really like the one with the refracted/doubled flag (Once again, I'd think about cropping - that one would look cool square with just the window.)
