homework from 3-4







In the photos above, all the photos have the unique style that catches the eyes of mainly. By capturing the movement right as it takes places, the pictures come out brilliantly. by the order of the photos, i will elaborate on why specifically I chose that one in my top five. So, the first photo is the photo with the card and the cigarette. you can see all the little particles flying with the impact from what was use to cut it. I think i like it because you can see it before it falls apart. like everything in the world, there was always the moment before everything falls or before things begin to get back together. this photo captures that split second before everything collapses. The next picture captures the moment right before you get splashed with the liquid that you dropped the ice cube in. you all know what i mean. this just shows you the initial impact of the ice cube breaking the surface tension. for the third picture, i like how the water is losing connection to the other paritcles f water. its like when something is holding on by a single thread, and then finally  it loses that grip and begins its descent until it smashes another surface. just the uniqueness of the next photo is why i liked it. and i chose the last photo because, just like the first one, it shows the moment of breakage.
