One of the chapters went over the history of photography but
what I took from the passage that was helpful was how photography can be
divided into two sections, documentation and art-photography. When documenting
one is taking the picture to capture a moment in time, and letting the camera
do most of the work. When it comes to art-photography there is intention,
passion, and expression behind the thought of the photo. This information was
useful because we used both kinds of photography for our project. We documented
our construction of the letter, and we also used art-photography when placing
the letters in intentional spaces around campus. The other passage teaches
different elements that can be used to take a successful picture. An example is
how symmetry and asymmetry can make a composition more appealing to the viewer.
Or by using framing this directs the viewers’ eye. These skills and ideas
helped make our pictures of our letters more visually successful.
