Alex Veras: Week 4: Lab Exercise- Creating Mood

All of the photos taken in this gallery are of plants/ flowers that my mother has grown in my backyard. For the regular/ brighter shots I relied only on the sunlight coming down seeing as how it was bright enough to the point that it exemplified the colors and features of each individual part of the plant. As for the darker/ moodier shots, I lowered down the meter on my cameraphone and got physically closer to the plants themselves. I think that getting physically closer to the plant changed the atmosphere of the picture, and by also taking away the light with the meter, it also changed the photo completely in a way that wouldn’t have been visible/ possible had I kept the light source(s) bright and visible.
