Research Landscape & Environmental Portraits

Eliot Porter

I loveee Eliot Porter’s work, firstly, the perspective at which this image is taken is breathtaking. The river guides the viewers eyes all the way through the image, allowing them to see every detail. The texture on the grass, the place the image is taken, the colors all throughout, every part is gorgeous. It captures both the small and big perspective parts of nature, amazing!

Dorothea Lange

I adore this image for Dorothea, the lines from the soil lead the eye straight to the subject, or the home. And the texture present in the soil gives the image depth and complexity. The subject being slightly off-centered is pleasing to the eye. Also, I know that the BAW is not an artistic choice as this was the only choice, but I do think it contributes to the complexity and aesthetics of the image and I love it!

Brainstorming

I will shoot my landscape images and environmental portraits of the landscape with a neighborhood, my friends will also be present in some of these images making it an enviornmental portrait.
