Student Website Reviews

From 1st period:

I looked at Irene Wu's Weebly. The link on her Weebly to take you to her pictures goes to her blogger, so that's why the hyperlink takes you there.

I think her best photo is the 4th photo in the series. It is the clearest of the photos and implements various elements of art. She has line, shape and form, along with a good depth of field. It is clever how the rose is behind the leaves but still the center of the picture. I especially think the inclusion of the thorns makes the picture great. Most people usually forget that roses have thorns, but she showed they are beautiful and dangerous.

From 2nd Period:

I looked at Vedant Mehta's Weebly.

I think his best picture is the 4th one in the series. It is by far the most unique of his. I light at then end of the tunnel makes a good silhouette, and because the person was moving is made an awesome blurry effect that looks amazing. The water on the bottom of the tunnel leads your eye to the end of the tunnel where the color from the graffiti makes the photo really pop.

From 4th Period:

I looked at Tulika Mohanti's Weebly.

Her best photo is the 2nd in the series, the one with a girl holding a leaf in front of her eye. The color of the leaf matches the models hair very well, and she seems very natural and like she isn't trying to hard to pose. The leaf in front of her face is very clever, and they did a good job making sure that it didn't cover to much of her face. The leaf and trees in the back give a feel like it was taken in the forest, and the denim jacket also fits in with that.
