Bonnie O'Toole's Photo portfolio |
Photography: Period 1 |
Did you know there are a bunch of tiny model houses hanging vertically in a cabinet by the wood shop room? I didn't. I really played a lot with perspective and angles with this one. It was interesting to see a miniature of something large zoomed in so it looks as if it were actual size . . . or something.
Interesting shot of a corner under the staircase by the science wing. I used photoshop to create a sense of depth by blurring the background and putting the foreground in focus. I like how the lines the bricks form aren't perfectly straight and how they also contrast the lines from the light and shadows.
I'm not sure what animal this skull belongs to, but I like it. There's a cow skull looming in the background, which adds extra depth to this photo. I like how it looks like the skull is floating. It fulfills the requirement of a photograph taken in a unique point of view. However, I am not pleased with the amount of image noise in the picture. But overall, I think the composition and subject matter is good.

"Living in Death"
Photograph
Photo of a jarred pig fetus I found in a display case. In my opinion the photo turned out well. We were supposed to photograph something from a unique point of view. The tilt helped made this photo successful, and the out-of-focus background added emphasis to the pig fetus. Most people don't like looking at dead things. So this is a closeup of such.
