Photo Analysis: Point of View (Photograph 1)

My Evaluation:

Subject: Leopard

Setting: On a tree, somewhere in the wilderness.

Background: Leaves

Foreground: Leaves, and unknown things.

Focus: The focus is the leopard and its emotion.

Vantage Point / Point of View: The photographer was standing bellow the leopard to take the picture.

Composition: In the background the leaves are faded and the spots on the leopard are also faded but as soon as you get to the front of the leopard towards the face the spots become more vibrant and noticeable. The eyes are very clear and green.

Lighting: The picture makes me feel like the leopard is finally at peace or is resting. Like the animal had a hard day and just barely got a break.

Meaning: This picture says to me that the leopard is just enjoying the resting time it has.

Photography

I see photography used in everyday life.
A photographer takes and shares photographs so that people can observe their skills.
A photographer is trying to share who they are, what they see, and how they feel through their pictures.
Photographers are trying to influence people with their work.
I am interested in photography becasue I want to make pictures come to life.
