Slow Shutter_Pictures Assignment

Movement

self-portraits

\

This series of photographs is an attempt to capture a usual day starting from when I wake up to when I go to sleep, capturing in between; going to class, going to the mall (sometimes), and taking the bus. 

I took into consideration the lighting and motion to reflect the pace and emotion of each action. For example, the photographs in the morning are low in contrast to show how dull and dazed I feel when waking up but then hearing my alarm clock makes me go crazy which explains the exaggerated motions. That said, I did not use the slow shutter in the photographs where I go to sleep in order to represent the exhaustion and calm surrounding that time of the day.
