For this weeks blog assignment, I dediced to capture the spirit of Autumn! You'll notice as the lighting conditions change the saturation of the scarecrow's colors turn much more harsh. Of course, I can't imagine a happy scarecrow like this every looking too scary, but the colors definitley turn much cooler the more dark the picture appears. The sun does have a way of making things look so much more happy and appealing to the eye, doesn't it? Also, you'll notice the leaves of the bush and the tree stump. The difference is certainly visible to the naked eye. The highlights in the sunny picture contrast greatly against the shadows of the other picture. You can also see how the quality of light affects the color of the bark, the color of the grass and the colors of the scarecrow's clothes. And, the lighting in the first picture captures shadowing from the tree's leaves and the bush to the left and behind the scarecrow. For me, the lighting of each picture definitley sets off different emotions. The top picture is much more light and happy. The second is a little more dreary and could be considered haunting if the scarecrow didn't have such a happy smile, don't ya think?
I do think that, you could make a horror movie if you look at it right.You analyzed that so well. The scare crow did look different in each picture, at first I wondered if it was the same scarecrow. Nice job on the photography.
