F0t0graphy: Paul Strand Photos

Overall, I think I accomplished what I wanted to do with this project before I started taking photos. I really tried to channel into my 'inner Paul Strand' which helped me get some pretty great pictures. Contrast, structure, and the subject of man-made things were what I tried to focus most on. Hopefully you guys like these, and let me know what you think :)

Surprisingly, throughout this assignment I didn't have much trouble. Except for when our evil photography computers decided to delete some things..So next time I should probably get my own SD card to make things a lot easier. Anyways, the contrast in my pictures remind me of Paul's style and I did my best to create some structure by keeping things off center. That's definitely what I like best about my images. Also, because many of Paul Strand's images concentrated on machinery of the early 1900's, I figured it would be a good idea to focus on modern, man-made things. These are the things I evaluated my photos on, contrast, structure, and subject. Personally, I think that these are pretty good things to base this project off, considering the style of Paul. So just by having the experience of walking through the halls and putting myself in Paul Strands shoes, I was able to take these photos.
