Nina Kelly TBS '10

Secrets
Black and White Silver Print

After I developed this picture, I realized that her face was hidden in the shadow of the umbrella. It shows that she is secretive. I didn't even notice until after I looked at it for a while. There was no specific message that I wanted to communicate except that you couldn't see her face so she is secretive. I used an umbrella because it was raining and it really worked well and made the print a lot better. I took a picture of this object when it was raining with an umbrella. The elements of art I used were lines, which you can see in the fence, and value. The umbrella is very dark while the sky is very light. They come together to really show where the picture took place. The object is a girl with an umbrella, and the umbrella really shows that it is outside and it is raining. The global worldview associates with this print because a lot of people are secretive in this world. What is seen in this image is a girl holding an umbrella in the rain outside during the day. It is in Nina Kelly's backyard.
