Distinct features of his photos

to others.

He’s photos are usually taken with sunset

They usually have reflections from either a

river or water.

Most of his pictures capture the cloud

Long exposure shots. High aperture and

low shuttle speed.

My Respond

Most of his works have a well balance colour of warmth and cool. It gives a sense of stability and makes the image relaxing to view.

He normally take pictures of sunsets just a moment when it sets away. This avoid over-exposure and results to seeing the overall image clearly. I feel that he is very good with timing the shot at the right time.

Most of his photos are isolated with one object and were taken with a 2/3 view. It makes the photo interesting and calm to the eyes.

Hobah

The dark clouds

exude a sense of

despair and

impossibility

The sunset gives

a feeling of hope

and anticipation

The isolated boat

shows that it is

alone. Where

there’s no one is

present to guide.

Still Water

The still water

shows a sense

of stability and

calm.

The slow

moving

reflection of the

cloud relaxes

the mind.

The neatness

of the trees

shows a sense

of in control.

The Falls

Long exposure

shot. Taken with

high aperture and

low shuttle speed

The blurry water

shows the river

moving very fast.

Coinciding with

the meaning of

‘The Falls’

Days End

The receding dark clouds depicts a scene of the end of a storm

The instability of the boat shows that there was a havoc.

The sun rising shows the end of the devastation and a new beginning.

The Wash

The left side depicts a new beginning with two person standing

The right shows that manufacture and industrialization has darken and pollute the world.

The wash shows that there is a need for change. To wash away all the abominable cause.
