Yet, at the same time, this unfortunate piece of information does not take away from the fact that I really do enjoy this photo. I used the foreground image as a focus point; perhaps, representing a guide to welcome new students to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">pima</span>. In the background is the the main building of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">pima</span>, standing ominously in the background, which probably the same way new students feel. What I don't like is the tree creeping up above the guide, giving the sign an "afro-like" look. Despite this, I still enjoy the image.Sean Spiecehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14134812919994096997noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7121069856991991228.post-19101581061203246492010-09-08T15:06:00.001-07:002010-09-08T15:15:01.133-07:00Assignment 2: Lines<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-QqZdpPcPNI1DpegFciQ9yK8kalr54UK2nysxlnUeuoUqjxrQd7SmdfcqeeV7oxHI4ka7t1fzl81SySJ8hf3O8yEJVTrgonMvnTZ9F_sAbUbz_KAjf7tq2dr1WTsxVmTXu0XhX6WruIs/s1600/IMG_0052.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 255px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-QqZdpPcPNI1DpegFciQ9yK8kalr54UK2nysxlnUeuoUqjxrQd7SmdfcqeeV7oxHI4ka7t1fzl81SySJ8hf3O8yEJVTrgonMvnTZ9F_sAbUbz_KAjf7tq2dr1WTsxVmTXu0XhX6WruIs/s320/IMG_0052.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514667631397413330" /></a><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">A</span>ssignment Assessment<br /><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>The line I selected to photograph was a combination of leading line and vertical line--basically a vertical line that lead to an object.

The line of light poles, too, served a purpose, as it lead the the stop light. Yet, I just felt like there was too much going on in this picture to be effective.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXuLd1uMBge3KDdlTwXmsYwEJTja1ADWyjOHIugzEnMslwIj5RGzZgfLzseDy_QQUh4NlSbrKJG8UnFZpXmqgiCZVzoTBR8AyD9GFY3_ZdFErXZqHzpW4cEd_DQKK1nDG8eC_8WcoVLlM/s1600/IMG_0056.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXuLd1uMBge3KDdlTwXmsYwEJTja1ADWyjOHIugzEnMslwIj5RGzZgfLzseDy_QQUh4NlSbrKJG8UnFZpXmqgiCZVzoTBR8AyD9GFY3_ZdFErXZqHzpW4cEd_DQKK1nDG8eC_8WcoVLlM/s320/IMG_0056.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514665909416658210" /></a>What intrigued me about this picture is the balance between the actual plants and the reflection of the very same plants with the vertical lines, of course inserting an almost conflict, acting as a barrier. However, I wasn't sure the lines truly served a purpose in the picture so I didn't feel confident.<br /><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWR8AC6JKpfdoCs4OGLzEOJsYkbbhDO4VBodt5Cj56X62fA7obooSY4keFjevQrA0e0ubZ4v_fIMywKuo8VGJ8pX-QHXzKCbua9aJTjJzizWzvfbxvo5L92Njcjru3M0PRXVjBaxhFQh0/s1600/IMG_0058.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 288px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWR8AC6JKpfdoCs4OGLzEOJsYkbbhDO4VBodt5Cj56X62fA7obooSY4keFjevQrA0e0ubZ4v_fIMywKuo8VGJ8pX-QHXzKCbua9aJTjJzizWzvfbxvo5L92Njcjru3M0PRXVjBaxhFQh0/s320/IMG_0058.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5514665355966802642" /></a>I really enjoyed this picture because of the frame of the stairwell almost being a line in itself . However, I wasn't sure the handrail was enough of the line, and I felt the background was too distracting. Thus, it is a runner-up.<div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div></div>Sean Spiecehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14134812919994096997noreply@blogger.com1
