Light and shadow-photography theme creation

Photography reflects the mood and state of the characters in a picture, and shows the scenes that are difficult to express in words and language in a visual way. These days, I took nearly 50 photos, and selected 15 which I think is the most representative, and divided them into three groups: noisy, tired and silent. The three groups of photos are arranged in the order of natural development of things, and the intention between groups is to show the changes of mood and state. Three groups of photos together constitute the photographic theme "light and shadow" that I want to create. "Light and shadow" refers not only to the lighting state of the picture itself, but also to the hidden emotions in the picture. Below, I will show photos and corresponding creative instructions in groups, and welcome your criticism and guidance.

The first set of photos: noisy

Description: Most of them are visions, and the subject is basically the figure's back. When shooting, the lens is reduced to show the big picture. Although there are many people, the excitement of the picture information is reduced by decoloration, which seems to freeze the noise of squares, traffic, scenic spots, shopping malls and parks, leaving a silence.

? ? The second set of photos: Tired

Description: Most of them are at close range, and the subject is basically a single person. The camera focuses on the characters and their tired facial features, such as the briefcase on their feet, confused eyes and haggard back. There is a lot of white space in the picture, and the overall tone is getting brighter, which symbolizes that the noise is coming to an end and the characters are tired.

The third group of photos: silence

Description: Empty streets and homeless cats directly show the loneliness of the environment. The dim lights, thin white fog and distant moon images create a quiet atmosphere. The color of the picture changed from achromatic color to warm tone, releasing the original sense of oppression and bondage.

At this point, all the photos of the photography theme have been displayed. Light and shadow itself is just a phenomenon. When the angle and place are chosen correctly, these moments can also have different aesthetic feelings. Loudness, fatigue and silence correspond to the color tone of the three characters, which are vividly reflected in the display of light and shadow. I believe that through the creation of new media art, more excellent works can be created. Thank you for watching.
