The leading lines of the knex lead your eyes througout the entire photo. The long angle creates an illusion of extreme height and the close-up let viewers see all the details of the structure.
I colors in this photo are fantastic, my eye is drawn to them because they really pop against the shadowing. The leading lines are also very interesting in how they make the structure look like it's going on forever! I admire how you were able to make this structure seem more like a building rather then just any old legos!
The feeling of craning your neck to see the knex tower really makes it seem really powerful and it kinda seems really important. Even though that sounds like something straight out of my notes, this photo really exemplifies the whole feeling of awe that makes me think this tower must be huge. The leading lines going up and the fact that all the towers are going up makes it look like the tower stretches in my imagination to something really huge.
The most striking part of this picture is the extremely low camera angle, which makes the viewer feel very small in comparison to the structure. Also, the camera angle creates the illusion that the structure could go on for miles. The leading lines of the structure draw the viewer’s eye up and out into the top of the structure. Because the lighting at the top of the structure is much darker than the bottom of the structure, the viewer isn’t sure how far up the structure reaches, and it seems possible that the structure could go on forever. The photo seems to make the statement that built structures like this one are bigger than and superior to humans.
i think that the very low camera angle and the leading lines, which lead your eye up, higher and higher into the tower, make you appreciate the complexity of the tower. This also makes you appreciate how much work it took to build it, making the tower seem very important.
I think mostly this photo is trying to emphasize what can be done through construction. The leading lines lead your eye upward, although you can never quite tell when it will end. This gives the sense that there may not be an end to what one can accomplish. The extremely low angle is also used to show the power that is exerted from this structure. This further fits in with the idea of how you can construct almost anything if you have the dedication and time. The close-up camera distance is used to focus directly on the building, instead of including the setting. This creates the sense that this could happen anywhere, and that the act of constructing can occur wherever you want it to.
Brenden, after your ninth grade eggshell painting comparison i just had to see what kind of photo you put up, and you've done it again, it's great! The very low angle allows me to see the complexity and wonder of the structure. The photo is chaotic and draws interest upon interest, but the leading lines ultimately draw the eye upwards, to a seemingly infinite extent. Although at first the structure seems complicated and intricate, after looking longer at the photo it breaks the construction down for the viewer, and let's us know that things are complicated but there is a way to figure things out.
The low angle really shows how high the tower is and gives it a sense of dominance, like it could possibly fall on you at any time. The close up shots shows the intricacy of the structure and how, if something was to go wrong, the whole building would collapse, also increasing its feeling of dominance. How the background is dark really makes the colors pop and the building seems unique and new. Most structures are just boring colors like grey, but this gives it a bit of pizaz to attract the eye. Also, the darkness at the top shows the tower keeps going which increases its feeling of dominance. The intense focus shows the strength of the structure and mantains the idea that if the tower fell on you, it would really hurt. The photo of the tower without any background brings the feeling that it could be anywhere. It is humbling to think that there is always something bigger, which this picture displays through the low angle. The lines of the structure keep leading up and keep going off the picture. It is humbling to think we are so big, and then have to look up and something that we can't even see the top of and realize we are just a little speck on the earth.
