Best Photo and Why

1Point.HEIC

I think this is my most successful photo because the additional details further enhance the vanishing 1 point, the topic of the picture. The yellow lines on the road leading into the vanishing point keep the viewer's attention on the photo's subject. I believe the soft lighting avoids harsh contrasts and better enhances the colors, notably the cool colors of the sky and the warm colors of the road. Additionally, the clouds provide a kind of cinematic quality, but doesn't clutter the subject of the photo.

Most Challenging Aspects and How to Strengthen Future Photos

The most challenging parts of this challenge were trying to find subject variety to avoid very similar photos, executing diffused lighting correctly, and the complementary and analogue colors. In terms of the complementary and analogue colors, I wanted to find those colors without physically doing it myself. I wanted to find it out in the wild, so to speak. In terms of the diffused lighting, I found it difficult to find the right kind of lighting that wouldn't provide harsh shadows, but also wouldn't make the shadows disappear completely. To further strengthen my images in the future, I want to try different filters to see what kind of impacts they have on the scenery of the photo. I would also like to practice more with lighting so I'm better accustomed to it, and to practice close-up shots.
