This exercise posed a few problems for me, not the least of which was the time constraint. Of course at the end of the exercise I saw quite a few things that I thought would be more appropriate than the images I am submitting now, but I decided to stick to the parameters. I found the class submission that used the bicycle for all elements, to be very creative. As an instructor who has been taught to copy / steal anything that works, I thought about doing something similar here; it turns out that I’m not that creative. I did not fill all the requirements but here goes.
Super Natural
A cropped photo of an orchid flower
Shadow
One Colour
Shades of blue
Human Emotion (anxiety)
This did not turn out quite as I would have liked. I believe that my depth of field was too shallow so the houses in the background are not identifiable. My idea of having a goal in sight but facing a million obstacles, is lost.
Converging Lines
Tracks leading home
Complexity
You can use just about anything in nature to convey the idea of complexity. I’m not quite sure if this is complex or chaotic. Well nothing in nature is actually chaotic, we just haven’t figured out the rules of order, so I guess this is complex.
