This is my favorite shadow picture because it turns a regular, colorful children's toy into an eerie shadow. I set the light at an angle and purposefully kept part of the toy in the field of view to bring in some interest and context as to what the shadow is originating from.
Reflection
I like this reflection picture because it's not instantly apparent that it is actually a reflection. If you concentrate and focus your attention into the lens of the camera, you can see part of the Hawthorne Bridge in the reflection. I think it's a unique angle to look at and brings in the interest of the viewer.
I set this picture up in my hallway of Thomas the engine going into his station. All I did for the lighting was turn off all the lights and shine a flashlight behind Thomas. I really like this picture because of its incorporations of chiaroscuro, shadows, and back lighting.
Silhouette
This photo is my dad's chair in front of his desktop computer. This, just like the kid's toy shadow is also intended to appear somewhat creepy and confusing. For these reasons I really like it because it's hard to tell what the subject really is at first glance.
Although, this back lighting photo is relatively simple, it's cool because of the subject (Griffin) being in focus and clearly in color while the rest of the picture appears washed out. It looks as if it's a Nike ad in itself!
