My favorite photographer :Berenice Abbott


Berenice Abbott is a very famous female photographer.She is good at collecting photos and documentary films.But I really like her architecture photos.Her photographs helpful for us to study composition.Whether past or present, her photos are all creative.
The portrait of the church.



The high angle of the city view.


Through the shadow, you can see a perfect staircase structure.This is a very nice composition.Sometimes,when we shoot something,the subject source is not necessary.

You also can see the contrast between the shadow and the main part.


 When the light of the sun is good and the shadow is obvious.Black and white style is a good choice.
Low angle can reflect tall objects.

Different angle, different views.

The contrast of the outside and inside.


From low to high,from near to far.

High angle of the city view.

My favorite Photographer:Ansel Adams

Ansel Adams is a very famous American photographer.His photography style is landscape.He took a lot photos ,these almost about natural view.On the other side,these also show us the importance of the environment protection.
In that times,the technology of the photography not very good.Normally,the nice landscape can be very colorful,but his photos only black and white.In spite of this,when you see his photos'composition and subject matter,you also can feel  colors in your brain.When you stand at different angles,the view also can be different.The most important thing is "You give your reader what kind of feeling?"
Sometimes,the color is not important,we should bring our readers to go inside our lenses.
