Prompt Shoot peer review

http://wesleysphotojournalismblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/prompt-shoot-3.html

My favorite photo was "the end". I liked this one because of the small focus ( I love how only the words the end are able to be read), and the black and white aspect. I also really like books & words and whatnot.

My least favorite was the "eight" photo. It doesn't stand out to me as much as the others do.

I really like how 3 out of 4 of the pictures are in b&w. It is creative and makes the "yummy" photo stand out more because it is in color. I also really like how the photos were not just taken from straight on with no zoom or change in aperture. I like how there are different angles and variety.

I think they could use aperture more wisely. In the "connected" and "eight" photo, the aperture blurs out almost all of the picture. Yes, aperture does create interesting depth of fields and focuses, but when used in the wrong situation it can be hard to find the "big picture" meaning. I think the first photo could have used a different aperture, because the focus of the picture was connection, yet it is zoomed in too far. This creates the opposite sense of connection, as it crops out the parts connected to the gears.

I think the "the end" photo was nicely portrayed. It was very literal, but sometimes being literal is the best way to go. It makes it easier for the audience to figure out the point of the picture.

I think the "Yummy" photo was the least successfully portrayed. The photo was taken nicely, but it really is just a picture of a drink, with not much meaning.
