Note: Colour, Metering mode & Focal length. (WK 5)

 Take a photograph of someone with their eyes closed and then with their eyes open:

The yellow background of these photographs really make the person stand out in the image. The dark colour of her hair makes a solid line between the background and the subject.


Take a low angle portrait of someone against the sky:

The sky in this image, while there wasn't any sun, was very bright which is why it looks as if the background is over exposed. The white is cloud, and the cloud makes the figure stand out. These low angle shots don't appear to be any different, but there is a small technical difference. The photograph on the left was shot in Centerweighted metering mode and the one on the right was shot in evaluative. There is one difference that i can see between these two images and that is the warmth in her skin, but that could be the angle of the photograph. To properly see the difference in the metering modes I'll probably have to reshoot the images on a sunny day and compare.
