Shadows and Silhouettes

This assignment fascinates me because before I have this assignment, I though all of these are Photoshop. But after the assignment, it let's me to pay attention the beauty of the sky. I was confused in the beginning with the shadow category, i thought we have to shoot pictures of a person or we can set-up the shadows. Instead we shouldn't set up the shadows, and shoot shadows objects that's already there.

Silhouettes

I really like this picture because the balance space of the sky and the building makes up a beautiful picture. The unique color of the sky is making this picture more special.

I was having difficulty to shoot silhouettes when the Sunlight is out, but changing to setting enables me to take this picture. This is a use of figure/ground because it confused the viewer with the sky and the building. Since the buildings are black, it makes the sky and the Sun stand out.

Shadows

This is a shadow of the tree branches. I think this is an interesting picture because the branches are branching out from the right, showing movement towards the left. The line of the concrete is also leading to the left.
