The Decisive Moment/Juxtaposition & Connections

The Decisive Moment/Juxtaposition & Connections -- Assignment 5

maybe one day i will land -- David Ong

To be honest I dont think this could be anymore of a decisive moment. This photo was well thought out, the Ong positioned himself in between the three trees in the background but still slightly of center of the entire photograph. He also appears to be on what could possible be an elevated gravel road. Obviously he wanted it to appear like he was levitating so he made the decision to jump and press the shutter at the same moment. I liked this photo so much that I decided to take photos much like this for my project.

Popping Soap Bubble --Richard Heeks

Capturing this photo must have taken forever. The timing it takes to capture a bubble popping in mid-air is incredible. In that matter i respect this photographer very much. It is not necessarily the best composed photo but it is definitely a great capture. I do like the cropping of the photo, the bubble as a circle in the square formatted cropping reminds me much of the tile floors of the Pantheon in Rome.

Water Sound Figures -- Linden Gledhill

This is another photo that has a great amount of work put into it. Gledhill had to put all of the colors down in the sequence he wanted. He took into account the cool baby blue with its counter hot pink which adds a great contrast in front of the black backdrop. I also like the clear blue water-like substance that surrounds the blue and pink paint that is risen.
