My Homage Photography to Berenice Abbot


    I am taking photographs to pay homage to Berenice Abbot. Homage is special honor or respect shown or expressed publicly. Berenice Abbot inspired me because i really like her pictures. Also she is a female photographer. I would like to be a photographer so she is a good role model. I have been taking pictures up buildings, like she did. I have also been playing with other objects. My final picture is a shadow on a white wall, with a pink teddy bear in front of it. We had to put our pictures in black in white, so we desaturated them and left one colored part in it to draw attention to that piece of the photograph, this is used in advertisement. Below is my final picture. My model is my friend Aileen, i was just taking a picture of the teddy bear "Senor Rawrrr" when i saw her shadow and i told her to come into the picture more so i could get it better. I like how it turned out, it is very different which is what i strive for. The other close up picture of "Senor Rawrrr" is one of my favorites. I love how pretty the beads are on his necklace, and how they stand out so much.



    Another picture i did for fun was a picture of a tiger i have had. This is the picture that made me decide i want to be a photographer. When i desaturated it it doesn't look much different because the bricks look almost gray already. I would like to find out how to make the eyes a bright green. I think that it would look awesome.
