ccdn 331 | project two | stage two

The second iteration of my eight images for the photo essay. I took on board the idea that I may have been trying to cover too many bases and have pared my idea back to the colour yellow being the common theme of my images. I really wanted to express my original idea of duality through these images. Even though there is a sense of a dichotomy being presented here, the yellow demonstrates that the two locations also share a commonality. I would go so far as to say the yellow is a metaphor for me.

In fact, there is a strong sense of self in both the subject matter AND the style/tone of my images. Typcially I like images with high contrast and dynamic colour which is what I have presented here.

Note: I am still trying to work out how to present my images and after today's feedback I can see it would be good to pair the images so that not only does each pair represent each of the two worlds but that they each also have an aspect in common. An example might be to pair the two instances of hands.

My haiku is:

my sun is yellow
wherever I go it is
the language I speak
