These two photos are the ones I fixed to add to my concentration. The bottom ones are new, but the top ones arent I just put them together.

My Final 12 Concentration Photo's

 



I took these few shoots over spring break. I tried to focus on how people worry to much about their weight. Always care about their outside image then their insides.

I like how when I look at this photo it give off a depressed, lonely feelings. Kind of creepy but I like it.

In this two photos I was just messing around with the contrast, and seeing which defined the mood or theme better. I kind of like the bottom one but I also like the top one.

These are just the same photos of before, but I did some editing. Like cropping the eyes off the shirt in the first one and cropping the eyes of my sister on the second one.

I took the class idea on putting both these photos together, and I actually like how it looks. It’s like a before and after picture. I also edited the first photo a little more to try to make it look like the second one.

These are a couple of photos I thought would symbolize self-destruction. I tried using different camera settings to also change the mood the photo is in.

Week 5.
So this week I tried to take photos of anorexia that would symbolize it. So I took a photo of my sister holding a measuring tape against her lips showing that she won’t eat because she is watching her weight. I’m also thinking about taking photos of her standing against a white back ground or wall, and have pieces of paper on her arms and neck. And the papers will have words describing her how she feelings. I also want to take a photo of her breaking a weight scale with a hammer because she is tired of looking at the numbers. Knowing that she isn’t "perfect".

In this photo it symbolizes that she wants to eat but cant because she is looking out for her weight.  

This picture symbolizes how the majority of deaths is caused by hanging themselves due to depression.

 Week 3.
This week I didn’t have time to take new photos for my concentration. But I did edit one. Also during this week I have been brainstorming and talking to friends about how what I should take photos of. I got some good ideas, for example I am going to take photos of my sister on her knees with cuts on her wrist, and have her head leaned down. Another idea I have is taking a photo of a bunch of candy and then a photo in black and white of veggies and fruits. And put both photos together as one. I also wanted to take a photo of my sister sitting down on the floor against a shelve of pills at a store and have magazines on the floor, and have her holding one looking at it.

 I’m not done editing this photo. But I tried to make the whole scene look sad or depressing. I thought that taking a photo of her holding a rope and standing in front of a tree would give the idea of committing suicide. This tie’s to my concentration of self-destruction.

Week 2.
 This week I sat down with my sister, and we discussed more about my concentration. I took a few shoots of her looking into the mirror. I tried taking them in different angels. I also brainstormed more ideas that would tie to my concentration.
