Second Attempt reviews

Below are a few images from my 2nd attempt at Automatic Photography.

I like this image; simple, yet divided by the telephone lines, as if a dividing line between the Earth and the sky. I also like the contrail joining the top telephone line, as if it is a statement about planes allowing us to access the skies from which we are so divided.

I like the sense of freedom this image gives the viewer. The depth of field makes the plants seem bigger and more spread out than they are in real life. Camera settings for this image were 82mm (35mm equivalent), ISO400, shutter speed; 1/1600 of a second and f/5.6.

I like the sense of peacefulness this image brings across; you can almost imagine yourself there in a hammock. The sun in the (aptly named in this case) golden section is the first thing your eye notices. If I was looking at this photo from a reviewers standpoint, I would say that it fell under the Terry Barrett category of Aesthetically Evaluative; I cannot state that as the photographer, as I feel an Aesthetically Evaluative photo can't be taken subconciously.

I like the simplicity of this image, yet the huge sense of freedom it gives. The bird lies almost directly in the golden section of the photo, but as there is nothing else in the photo, there is nothing else for the eye to go to anyways.

I like the lines in this image; even the beginning of the shadow in the middle of the image is in line with the bridge struts.

I really like this image. All the lines point to the right hand side of the image, and when viewed from far away, or a smaller image, an arrow is clearly visible. Chiaroscuro is a key compositional element in this image.
