(I'm gonna be honest here and admit that I did an AWFUL job on this
series of images of finding the names of the photographers whose
pictures I included, so please...if you know who the photographers are,
please let me know!)
I love the colors in this image by Ange Simon!
The coloration in this image is REALLY pretty.
FIRE HORSE, FTW!
FREAKIN' BABY BUMBLEBEE! D'AWWW!
I enjoy the colors in this image. I also really like the curling of all the flowers and whatnot.
Gotta love colorful pictures!
I find this composition very interesting. There are so many things to look at and find in the image.
Oooo! This looks like an interesting place to visit, doesn't it?!
I just find the concept behind this image amusing. Sometimes, even the Statue of Liberty needs to take a rest.
I find this image
interesting. I like the idea of human
robots as a digital manipulation, and I think this photographer did a very good
job at accomplishing the task. I think the
cool-toned haircut and geometric background lend themselves to the robot
manipulation. I love the way the parts
all look like they float and work together.
I also like the contrast to be found in the image. It is interesting how her knee and part of
her right hand go into the darkness in the lower left corner of the image. Her outfit, I think, also lends itself to the
photo manipulation. The photographer
added sheen to the model’s skin to make it appear plastic or metallic, as a
robot would be. I think, all in all, the
photographer was very successful with this manipulation. I think the shadow in the image was the
actual shadow from the model, as opposed to a fake one added in post.
A survey of different genres of photography. 10 images for each post. Each image will have a little something said about why I like it, and 1 picture out of each set will have a more elaborate description to it.

Fine Art Photography
I really like the opposition of the smooth skins and the hairy skins in this image by Joe Henson.
Nadja Drieling was really able to capture some beautiful detail on the veining within the leaf!
You gotta love some organized chaos from time to time! This image is by Karen Somers.
Beauty can be found in both living AND dead things. Davin Lavikka captured this beautiful image.
Here is another image by Nadja Drieling. This one has such beautiful shading, in my opinion.
Viki Reed took this image. I enjoy the fact that the petals are so fragile and have ripped slightly.
Nick Brandt was able to capture a TON of detail in the elephant's trunk.
Here is another shot by Nick Brandt. I enjoy the simplicity of this shot.

The level of contrast in this image is very intriguing. I love the details to be found in the petals
of the flower on the right. It gives
texture to the image, and adds a bit of weight to the petals. The flowers in the background have a soft
texture that serves to fill up the background a bit, but mainly just join all
the rest of the flowers together. I love
the stamen in the right flower. It takes
the white on black to the next level and adds a level of black on white on top
of that. Everything is joined together
nicely, either by touch or by additional levels of contrast. The pristine nature of the flower on the
right adds emphasis to the smaller flower in the lower right that has speckles
on its petals. The flower on the left
seems to blend into nothingness because the stem is black against the black
background.
This image is by Lisa Williams.
I love the detail the photographer, Nelson Rietzke, was able to capture in the wood grain.

Commercial Photography
I enjoy the color scheme and humor behind this photo.
Woo! Controlled chaos and prettiness!
I really enjoy the humor this photographer puts into his images, as you'll see in most of the pics in this post. =P
See? Here is more humor from this photographer, and he is still able to convey his message in a straight forward manner, too.
I love the mix of the natural and the unnatural in this image.
I love how the entire image is pretty, yet the focus is still on the subject.
This car is so secure in corners, you can even trust it on banana peels!
I'm not sure what it's advertising, if anything, but I like the image, nonetheless.
Also images in this post were by photographer Glen Wexler.

This image appears to be an
advertisement for bug repellent. The
subject in the middle of the image appears cool and relaxed despite being
surrounded by a large mass of blood-sucking mosquitoes.
I
enjoy the composition of the image, utilizing the mass of mosquitoes to keep
the eyes focused on the girl. The colors
used also draw your eyes in. I think the
lighting is nice, as well. If I saw this
ad in a magazine, I would take a second look to see what kind of repellent it
was for because I find it interesting.
It maintains a level of interest, while also displaying what someone
would want from a repellent product.
The Three Blind Mice don't want cheese...they want contact lenses! lolThis car is so secure in corners, you can even trust it on banana peels!
I'm not sure what it's advertising, if anything, but I like the image, nonetheless.

Documentary Photography / Photojournalism
I love this image so
much. I find it interesting that the
only person turning around to look at the disabled black man is a child walking
past. Everyone else is too busy to even
glance at the poor man begging for change on the side of the road. He is clearly both poor and disabled, and yet
nobody is giving him the time of day based on the color of his skin. They are all well-dressed and going about
busy lives while he is not sufficiently dressed for the weather, and sitting on
the cold sidewalk trying to get some money to live off of.
I love the fact that there is only one little girl that is happy in this image.
I enjoy the sense of balance in this image. There are seamen on the left and business people on the right, the seamen facing backwards and the business people facing forward.
I love how this image leaves the idea in your head that perhaps they ate the child. lol
I enjoy the fact that the only person in this image is a large silhouette.
I find it interesting that this woman is biting her covering.
Every time I see this image, I'm fascinated that a common nanny captured this image with a simple camera and zero training.
I am intrigued by the emptiness and sadness in this photo.
Being an artist, myself, I love the thought of discarded ideas just laying around in the trash bin.
I really love the simplicity of the photo and the beauty of the woman captured by the image.
All photos in this entry were by Vivian Maier.

Architectural Photography
This is an image by Brett Jackman. I love the contrast of the smooth, straight lines from the architecture and the soft, fluffy lines of the clouds and their reflections.
I love the slightly off-center symmetry, along with the color in this Brett Jackman image.
Here is an image by Dave Wilson. I love the curvature of this building. It's a really interesting image.
This is another image by Dave Wilson. I love the anomaly of the windows here.
Nick Garrod photographed this shot. I love the spiral effect and the way the spiral draws your eyes into the image.
I love the colors, the clean lines, and the anomaly of the elephant in this image by Paul Bica.
Unfortunately, I was unable to find out who the photographer was for this image. =(
Sven Fennema created this image. The muted color palette and soft light helps to enhance the soft curves found in this interior.
This image, also by Sven Fennema, is just freaking beautiful. I mean, just look at it!
Here is an image by Wojciech Dziadosz. I love the warped view of the interior that the lens gives.

I
love this image! I love the fact that
the reflection and the building, itself, merge together to create the shape of
a fish. Not only does the architectural
aspect of the image form the shape of a fish, but there is water in the image
as if the fish were actually in the water.
The
colors blend nicely, none distracting from the image or drawing your eye to any
particular spot in the image. Everything
in the image just seems to blend and mesh together to create an image that is
much more than simply an image of a building.
I think that the architect who created this building had this image in
mind when he or she created it.Unfortunately, I was unable to find out who the photographer was for this image. =(
