So... above are my contact sheets, and my favorite(ish) six photos that I plan on printing. I'll probably do some minor color adjustments to a couple, but other than that, what you see is what you get. It was a fun assignment. I spent one morning in Cambridge and another morning in Portsmouth. I also warmed up a little last weekend in York. I really enjoy cities, so it was a challenge to convey the feelings I have with an image. Sometimes juxtaposition is my goal: like the street lamp that seems to be lighting the Prudential building, or the very human "obey" tag amongst the robotic buildings. I also enjoy the feeling of authenticity I got with the barber shop. Kinda like that laundry photo I took during the first assignment, I managed to make it look really washed out (in a good way I think) and old. Editing was difficult, and I'm still not sure of all my choices, but I can always go back and print more if I want to...
I really love the one with the sun shining on the red bricked building with the bridge in the background and bird flying overhead. It is very compositionally interesting and beautiful
